Only steam Carnforth-Carlisle-Preston.
.
The really interesting bit was Sideway Loop for the Birmingham-Crewe EMU to pass.
Anyone what Steam Train passed through Yesterday I saw it about twenty to Six going down the Walsall to Wolverhampton Line near Bentley Road South as it was heading towards Wolverhampton as it was going under the Black Country Route as I crossed the Railway Bridge I was at the bottom of the road near to Bentley when I saw it. I have only ever seen 1 before in that location last year maybe. Edit appears to be a Train from Stratford Upon Avon to Manchester Victoria

I didn't see it myself, though I heard it from my garden!
When I checked on Signalbox.io, it was one of West Coast Railway's

I meant to go down to Yardley Wood station to try and see it on its return journey back to Manchester, but got busy with other stuff and forgot about it!
