165008, CH 13.34 Birmingham Moor Street-Leamington Spa (2L48, 3L), Lapworth station An unusual picture of 165008 leaving Lapworth station working the 13.34 Birmingham Moor Street to Leamington Spa stopper service. I am standing on the replacement footbridge erected in the 1980s that, as well as spanning the two existing running lines, also spans the abandoned trackbed that can be seen below complete with the old platform still visible. One wonders if the fact that the replacement bridge was built with the extra length at considerable cost that there is a future for the abandoned trackbed? Notice the original GWR railings still marking the boundary between railway property and the public right of way. Keywords: 165008 13.34 Birmingham Moor Street-Leamington Spa 2L48 Lapworth station
