3rd September 1966
Oldbury and Langley Green station on 3rd September 1966 had a lot of railway interest. Passing through with a Birmingham Snow Hill bound train is a Derby built class 116 in green livery. The station dated from 1885 as did the branch to Oldbury (right). The GWR water tower still has a residue of water pouring from the bag which suggests that a steam loco shunting at Langley Green yard had recently had a top-up. The signal box is on the platform end and had steps to the back so that the single line token for the Oldbury branch could be exchanged (this practise continued long after passenger services ceased because the branch gave access to a chemical works), behind the box is the signalman's Raleigh moped. To the far left is the distinctive roof of Langley Green Maltings, still extant but badly burnt after a fire, the building is listed. Image taken by Peter Shoesmith. Geoff Dowling and John Whitehouse Collection.
