Taken looking in the 'down' direction towards Wolverhampton. Within living memory an intensive passenger service operated in the area. Dudley Port once had at least five platforms situated at two levels. From the high level platforms trains served Wolverhampton, Birmingham (New Street) and Dudley and one could get to Walsall, Birmingham (Snow Hill) and Dudley from the low level platforms. Today the high level still has a service between New Street and Wolverhampton and there is talk of reopening the low level lines to enable an extension of the Midland Metro from Wednesbury to Dudley.
