A Day in Birmingham and Stourbridge, 6th February 2012

Images by Ian Knight, who writes "Had a day in Brum on Monday seeking out the new 172 unts on the old GW suburban lines. A day Centro from Bescot cost £5.80 and with free parking was a bargain. Also took in the Stourbridge line with its Parry People Mover shuttle." He also advises that he saw all but two of the 172s, which you, dear reader, may take as a challenge!
