I have had a nice ride around today.
Train Hednesford-Birmingham
Train Birmingham-Water Orton
Train Water Orton-Nuneaton
Train Nuneaton-Leicester
Train Leicester-Hinckley
Train Hinckley-Nuneaton
Train Nuneaton-Rugeley Trent Valley
Train Rugeley Trent Valley-Hednesford
7 class 170s and a 350!

How much did that cost Tony?

Not as much as it should!
When I got on the train at Water Orton, which is unmanned and doesn't have a ticket machine the conductor couldn't be bothered to come out his back cab to sell tickets to the couple of us that got on there.

£10.30 return Nuneaton to Leicester
£6.30 single Nuneaton to Rugeley.

What was baffling was when I went to the ticket machine at Nuneaton to buy the ticket to Rugeley it gave me 3 options

£8.50 any permitted (valid via Birmingham)
£6.50 'not Birmingham'
£6.30 'via Tamworth'

Not quite sure why there are both of the bottom two as I cannot think of a route you can take 'not Birmingham' that isn't 'via Tamworth'

172218 is my "stalker" train - it always seems to be that one whenever I use the Stourbridge Line and I see it everywhere. Not complaining, it has a nice little whine when pulling away
