Long empty coaching stock train northbound on the main line near Ashchurch
View southward from Northway level-crossing, on the ex-Midland Bristol - Birmingham main line. The train - of about 18 coaches - needed a Stanier 8F 2-8-0 (No. 48223) to handle it. The reporting number M861 on the smokebox indicates a relief holiday express, however.
