The 16.44 Stratford-upon-Avon to Worcester Shrub Hill Shakespeare Express, 1Z68, headed by 5043 Earl of Mount Edgecumbe passing the fine traditional GWR station at Stratford Parkway (!) on Sunday 30 June 2024. Vintage Trains' 47773 was used to avoid lengthy turning moves and tender first running as well as giving 5043 with its 8 coaches train a bit of a shove on the 1/75 climb to Wilmcote.
