Wolverhampton Low Level station in Autumn 1969. Single car diesel multiple unit dmu W55008, in rail blue with yellow end panels, stands in the only rail connected platform as the late afternoon light is fading. The very last gasp for passenger services on this one-time Great Western Railway trunk route from London to Merseyside. Pete LG99.

Birmingham Snow Hill in Autumn 1969. A single diesel multiple unit (W55008) was sufficient for the weekend traffic to Wolverhampton Low Level. It was in blue livery with a small yellow warning panel & here with exhaust billowing from its two cab roof pipes it is ticking over in bay platform 4 prior to departure. Pete LG99.

circa September 1969
Set: TY053
Taken at Birmingham Snow Hill in Autumn 1969, the days when at least a shuttle service ran to Wolverhampton Low Level. This single car dmu (55008) sitting in bay platfom 4 looks a bit lost in the grandeur of the setting but was sufficient for the expected custom. The disused Great Charles Street exit is ringed by the delicate Edwardian wrought iron fencing & gate between bay platform 4 & the Down Main platform 5. The tracks are still in the platform lines but the through lines have been severed at this point. Pete LG99.

Bubble to bubble. Probably at Spring Road circa 1970, TY057 on the left is presumably 55017 which would become a route learner in 1972. Stuart Mackay Collection.
20th June 1970
This could be a Class 122 bubble arriving into St. Erth station, it'll be well packed if so. Or it could be a Class 116? Either way, a kid is enjoying a cab ride in the June 20, 1970 view. Steve Davies Collection.
circa 1971
Set: TY059
Class 122 GRC&W bubble car M55008 at Langley Green station circa 1971, probably working between here and Birmingham Snow Hill. The set number in the cab window seems to read TY059. Note that "Oldbury &" is no longer picked out in white on the signal box name. Graham Clark.
1971
Now known as Handsworth, the Saturday only midday Birmingham Snow Hill to Wolverhampton Low Level single car leaves Handsworth & Smethwick in 1971. Snow Hill by now had 6 daily deps to Wolverhampton and 4 to Langley Green. 4 tracks are back in place with the Jewellery Line and the Metro. Stephen Burdett.
1971
The Saturdays only 12.40 to Wolverhampton Low Level waits to leave the largest unstaffed halt in the world, resting in the murk of Birmingham Snow Hill. Only two platforms remained in use for 10 daily departures. Seven on a Saturday and none on Sundays! Stephen Burdett.
