An unidentified ex-LMS 4F 0-6-0 goods locomotive is seen
approaching Duddeston Road Junction signal box. The train is travelling on the
up passenger line and because the distant signal was 'on' Bob Essery states in
the second volume of the DJ Norton series of books Pictorial Surveys of
Railways in the West Midlands that its most likely destination was Lawley
Street Goods Station although it might continue to Water Orton or further
north. The locomotive has just passed over Duddeston Mill Road, a bridge girder
can be seen to the right of the locomotive whilst to the left of the photograph
and behind the small brick hut, the cutting within which the road is hidden can
be seen.
