50062
21st August 1976
Set: TY528
As the driver opens up a cloud of thick exhaust smoke blots out the background. The leading set comprises 50062, 59028 & 50117 The train will be on the way to New Street to work a Birmingham to Kidderminster service, it has just left Tyseley Carriage sidings. The houses on the left were on Byron Road they were sturdy Victorian tunnel back houses but they fell victim to Small Heath Highway which was built to relieve traffic through Small Heath on the Coventry Road (it didn't) The houses on the right are off Armoury Road, they were owned by BSA Motorcycles and the houses could be rented by employees, sadly by this time BSA had closed and the houses would soon follow the factory into oblivion, it is now an industrial estate. The station platform may not have anywhere to sit or shelter but it certainly was well lit, the wonky gradient post remains! Image by Peter Shoesmith 21 August 1976. Geoff Dowling and John Whitehouse Collection.

16th August 1986
Set: TS512
Barnt Green is the junction for the Redditch branch, the line for which curves sharply away from the Birmingham to Bristol line. Line occupation, especially in the summer, meant that trains from Redditch often had quite a wait in the platform until Saltley Power Box found them a path, especially if they were a minute or two late arriving. The usual class 116 (TS512, presumably 53063 + 59717 + 53119) is shown here on 16 August 1986 waiting at the signal before heading off to Lichfield City via Birmingham New Street. Peter Tandy.
