A delightful shot taken at the west end of Birmingham New Street station circa 1958. On the extreme left a 2-6-4T is stabled at the service/turntable facility, alongside a Fowler
4-4-0 and Black 5 approach with a service from the Bristol route, to the right of the signalbox a Derby Lightweight DMU waits to run into the station and 'the piece de resistance' Derby built prototype diesel 10001 approaches the station with a Wolverhampton - Euston service, circa 1958. ©Ranwell Collection/Rail Photoprints
