I spent two hours at Longbridge, a station managed by West Midlands Railway (WMT) looking for Class 730 which have been in service for a few weeks. Only WMT trains stop here with the station being on the Cross City Line. Trains are currently terminating at Birmingham New Street due to rail engineering work in the Aston area. This means the Northern part of the Cross City line is out of action and buses replacing train services.
The station has two platforms. Cross Country and freight trains can be seen passing through.
My footage was taken from platform 1, the southbound platform towards Birmingham.
Recommended for you:
Birmingham New Street 👉 • Trains at Birmingham N...
Wolverhampton 👉 • Trains at Wolverhampto...
Verdict: It is always nice to visit and experience new stations. The views from the Platform 1 are very good in both directions. Overall it is not a station I would revisit in a hurry.
