A rude farewell



Here's ex-GWR steamer 4965 Rood Ashton Hall rounding the curves west of Streetly on Saturday morning as seen through the lens of Nick Broome.

The tour was running from Tyseley to Chester.

This "farewell" tour will be the last outing for some time by this particular locomotive, as she is being taken out of service for a full overhaul at Tyseley Works.

Thanks to Nick for the photo's.

ps see the video bar on the right for a night video of 4965 returning through Aldridge on Saturday evening.

Stunning, simple as that.
