Pendolino at Sandwell & Dudley railway station, Oldbury
A Virgin Trains class 390 electric 9-car train number 390046 awaits departure from Sandwell & Dudley railway station, on the West Coast Main Line (somewhat misnamed here - in the centre of England!)
Pendolino, Italian for little pendulum, is a type of tilting train. By tilting, the train can go round curves designed for slower trains at higher speeds without causing passenger discomfort.
