Line Blocked






The continuing engineering work along the Sutton Park line today.

1 & 2 Line blocked at Park Lane Jn, seen from Walmley, showing the double lines diverging into two single lines, the one on the left going to Water Orton, and the right hand one snaking across to Castle Bromwich.

3 Tree clearance and brash removal in Sutton Park.

4 Positioning concrete sleepers at Aldridge.

5 Ballast train at Rushall (Daw End).

Someones been busy!

Great set of photos, Park Lane Jcn is not often seen. It is always interesting to see views of engineering work going on. Nice view of Aldridge with that useful crossover, it would be so easy to provide a station there.

A shame that the honourable George Carter can't make his way to Park Lane for the track-level shots.... !
