Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Birmingham - Cardiff express running under the Severn & Wye line by Severn Bridge station.
View NE, towards Gloucester; ex-GWR Gloucester etc. - South Wales main line, passing under the Severn & Wye (GW&LMS) Joint line, Lydney - Sharpness - Berkeley Road. Severn Bridge station is up on the left, the Severn Bridge itself being to the right. The Severn Bridge and the line between Lydney and Sharpness were closed abruptly after a colliding barge took out one of the central piers and two spans in the night of 25-26/10/60. Subsequently the line remained open Berkeley Road - Sharpness until 2/11/64 (goods 3/1/66). The express is headed by 4-6-0 No. 4953 'Pitchford Hall' (built 8/29, withdrawn 5/63) in nice clean condition.
