I saw (and managed to snap a photo of) 4990 being towed back to Coventry yesterday.

and sister 1852 was broken down in Pedmore Road, Lye at 11:30 this morning?

No idea why it should be in Lye?

@Trident 4194 It was heading in the opposite direction, heading from Lye towards the Foley Arms, which is why I thought it unusual. Maybe heading somewhere for MOT, don't know, maybe @Tony knows where it was going?
