55034

3rd June 1989

Set: T134

On 3 June 1989 55034 is photographed on the Birmingham to Worcester service from a road bridge south of Bromsgrove station near Stoke Prior. This is a decent location with good views available in both directions and with a shot still available of a train in the down goods loop in 2021 thanks to some much needed clearance of some vegetatiom from the lineside. Peter Tandy.

This was the scene just to the south of Bromsgrove station on 27 July 1989 taken from the bridge known to most local photographers as "Garringtons". At the time the station had a single platorm on the up side meaning that the few trains that called there had to cross over to collect passengers. A single unit, on this occasion 55034, was the usual accomodation for the modest number of passengers on the Birmingham to Worcester services that called here: a situation that had been the case for a number of years. Prominent in the picture are the Lickey Bankers, 37071 + 37032, waiting either for a freight that needed a shove up the 1/37 of the incline or an ailing locomotive or unit needing assistance. The view here in 2021 has changed almost beyond belief with electrification of the line, a new 4 platform station, the removal of the oil terminal and the inevitable construction of multiple housing estates. Peter Tandy.

10th August 1992

Set: T014

By 10 August 1992 single unit DMUs were not an everyday sight on the inadequate 2 hourly trains between Leamington Spa and Stratford-upon-Avon so it was worth a walk to the station when 55034 + 55032 were working the 17.05 to Leamington. This shot was taken just as the units were leaving the station and not long after resignalling had meant that a shunt from platform 1, historically the arrivals platform, to P2 was no longer necessary. The rust on the then little used tracks on P2 can been clearly seen. Peter Tandy.
