172218, LM 15.19 Whitlocks End-Worcester Foregate Street (2V38), Birmingham Moor Street station 
 With the former GWR water tower superbly well restored at Birmingham Moor Street dominating the scene, 172218 arrives at the station with the 15.19 Whitlocks End to Worcester Foregate Street. The station was opened in 1909 by the Great Western but over the years its use declined to the point in the 1970s when it was even facing possible closure. However, after the West Midlands Passenger Transport Executive took over responsibility from BR in 1975 a gradual improvement in services took place, so much so that Moor Street is now Birmingham's second-busiest station.
