350256, LN 11.22 Birmingham New Street-Crewe (2K48, 2L) & 221133, XC 10.27 Manchester Piccadilly-Reading (1O14, 1E), Wolverhampton station
A busy scene at Wolverhampton station. With a London bound
Pendolino to the far side CrossCountry's 221113 leaves working the 1O14 10.27 Manchester to Reading service. In the foreground 350256 waits to leave working the 11.22 New Street to Crewe local stopper. For such a busy and principal station I find Wolverhampton a cramped place that seems to be in a perpetual state of construction or alteration. That was no exception on the day of our visit with the entrance area being re-built.
