A view from the northern end of Walsall station, looking in the direction of Ryecroft Junction, at 1301 hrs, Thursday 03 February 2022. Class 66 loco no. 66432 of Direct Rail Services heads 4E49, the Daventry (1137 hrs) to Doncaster 'Tesco' working. This was my first railway outing of the year, having spent most of January doing my best to avoid Covid. It was good to be out again.
