SP0487 : No longer in use

Smethwick, Sandwell, Great Britain

No longer in use
No longer in use
This bridge pier used to carry the LMS railway branch line to Harborne. As far as I know the line was closed in the Beeching era, but I remember it well before that and cannot ever remember the line in use. Most of the old railway line is now a linear park. The houses in the upper right hand corner are in Northbrook Street.
