Wrexham & Shropshire's at Stechford. 67014,67018 on the 27/11/10.

After the 47 passed on the railtour, right behind it was a southbound W&S slightly delayed (opening sound effects by London Midland!). It is seen passing platform 3 at Stechford (near Birmingham) on 1P01 with 67014 pushing from the rear.

A late running 1J85 then appeared from the south, London Midland did their best to get in the way, and was held for the crossover. It is then seen departing and crossing onto the Aston line, with DBS livered 67018 at the rear.

Nicely filmed. That junction (in your second clip) was the scene of a bad accident in 1967 when an EMU ran into a Class 24 making a shunt move...
