View from Handsworth Park of footbridge across the line, and the tunnel entrance in distance. This is the site of former Handsworth Wood Station. The railway line is principally a freight line, but also has Birmingham - Walsall passenger services running through, though there are no longer any stations between Smethwick Rolfe Street and Hamstead.
