Snow Hill (Midland Metro)

Was a bit worrying when service got cut back to St Paul's due to a vehicle on the track at Snow Hill area, but service was restored for me to grab the useless station

Of the Great Western Railway stations within the West Midlands PTE area, I only have Earlswood that is left hanging. Also, the only remaining L&NWR stations I have remaining are Bloxwich to Rugeley Town (except Hednesford), and maybe Hamstead and Tame Bridge Parkway as those I am unsure if I did those years ago.

Well done on getting Bordesley.

I was there at 14:16 having alighted from the ex Stratford-upon-Avon via Shirley, and left on the 14:22 Dorridge to head to Solihull.

Trafford Park.

(Actually wanted to be there, at a time suitable for the two-hourly service. A special satisfaction in warping real life to one's shack needs...)
