Today’s video features Tyseley’s flagship WR Castle Class 4-6-0 hauling the first week of Vintage Trains’ annual Polar Express season. These trains offer a wonderful Christmas experience to all those on board and involve a return trip from Birmingham Moor Street to either Dorridge or Whitlock's End (more commonly Dorridge), hauled out with a diesel and back with 7029 at the helm. These videos were filmed over the first weekend of Polar Express operations for 2025, in pockets of time that I had spare during a weekend in the Midlands.
On Saturday we begin at Solihull, where 7029 passes by headed for Moor Street on the 2nd train of the day. We then jump to Bentley Heath Crossing for the final train of the day, where 7029 is seen bursting out of the fog into the glare of the floodlit crossing. Now onto Sunday, I made an attempt to catch 7029 on the first run of the day with some winter sunshine but this was sadly unsuccessful as the sun went in as usual lol. However, we did get some nice noise from the Castle as she passed by. We then move to the last train of the day at Widney Manor station itself, where, after sounding wonderful on the approach, she sadly shut off through the station hot on the heels of a WMR stopper in front. At that, I headed home.
Thanks for watching, thank you to WMR and my trusty bike for getting me around and thank you to VT, 7029 and her crews as always. I hope you enjoy as I do!
