LMS Route: Evesham to Birmingham
Evesham Station: mre1332
Metro-Cammell Diesel Multiple Unit is seen after arrival as the
10:30 am from Birmingham New Street. By this time a much-improved local service
was in operation between New Street and Redditch, and the limited remaining
service between Redditch and Ashchurch was being worked as a steam-hauled
shuttle. The driver is in the process of changing the rear destination blind:
although the electrified 'cross city' service now operates between Redditch and
Lichfield, this was not then the case and the sign is coincidental.
