Farewell Wrexham & Shropshire Railway! (Wonderful & Sadly Missed Rail operator W.S.M.R)

[SamMitchell90]

There is one of these trains sitting at Stourbridge Junction at the moment and has been doing so for ages on and off. Anyone know why?

I was wondering what these trains were, shame to see them no longer in service!

Great Video, 5 Stars! Top marks to Wrexham & Shropshire for all the hard work they put into runing a great train service! Such a shame they are now gone! :(

Right at the end.. the fella on the PA announcing the final station, sounds a bit emotional! Don't blame him!

RIP WS&MR 28/04/2008-28/01/2011

Such a waste. ...

[xpressLOLzilla]

Is all the rolling stock going to be sold? That would mean some mk3s and a DVT would be up for grabs!

if it gets reinstated,due to the petition,then they need to let it call at birmingham new st,so it gets more passengers

[vladimir2366fa]

Thanks you, Videos very nice,

[MrFasttrack1]

why is it closing?

[mattenigmaevolution]

@MrFasttrack1 Losing money and stuff , Low patronage etc. wasn't viable to run the service anymore.

Quite sad really

[MarkeatonLord]

@MrFasttrack1 From what I heard today from an official source Cross Country and another operator stopped W&SMR from picking up at two major stations. This of course had a major impact on patronage which of course took it's toll on takings. It's a great shame to have lost what was such a successful company. A company which had it not been for Cross Country and the other operator would still be running today.
