1/ Saturday’s shift was a nice mix of route & traction. Beginning with a round trip Redditch/Four Oaks followed by a break. I then headed over for a drive on the Chase line to Rugeley. It’s quite picturesque driving in the snow. That was all #Class730 work…

My nice little Monday shift began with a Wolverhampton followed by a PNB, then a Redditch/Four Oaks/Redditch with empties back to Birmingham. Reasonably uneventful bar some intoxicated youths at Longbridge meaning we didn’t move until they were off the platform.

Get them whilst you can 👀 With the December TT change 730/2s will cease operations on Birmingham - Liverpool runs so grab them whilst you still can. ✅

Good Afternoon from a Sunny Liverpool Lime Street ☀️

First trip to the homeland in a while and I've sampled a 730/2 both ways and have to say I'm very impressed with them over a longer distance 🙌

A taxi to #SohoDepot to bring a pair of #Class730 to B’ham New St was how my day started at the crack of dawn. I had time to quickly make a coffee ahead of driving Four Oaks/Redditch/Four Oaks & then after a break I finished up with a Rugeley. #DayInTheLife #TrainDriver
