The former South Staffordshire line between Walsall and Dudley, looking towards Walsall from the Lower Church Lane bridge. After more than two decades of proposals, work has finally begun on using the formation for an extension to the Midland Metro light rail system, hence the clearance of vegetation and levelling of the trackbed seen here.
