LPPC DSL BW 1268 Waiting at Malvern Wells’ westbound outer home signal is a three-car Birmingham area WR DMU which has probably formed a Birmingham New Street to Great Malvern stopper via Stourbridge Junction. It will soon draw forward across to the up line to return to Great Malvern to form a service back to New Street. It is some time since the goods loop was last used as there were no longer any booked freight trains running between Worcester and Hereford. The LMS branch to Upton upon Severn and Ashchurch diverged in the far background, just before the loop turnout. The line then ran behind the bushes to the right, to Malvern Hagley Road station which was out of sight behind and to the right of the photographer.
