Heart of England Rail Rover - Sunday

Rounding off the record breaking week - Home Station : Worcester Shrub Hill


As there were no trains leaving Ledbury on a Sunday until the afternoon, I headed to Great Malvern by car and then started my journey to Oxford. I was extremly lucky, as my connection at Oxford (the train to bring me back), meant that I only had 2 minutes to change trains. I arrived late at Oxford. I managed to catch the other train as the other train was running late.To break through the 2000 mile barrier, I had to go up the Birmingham line and back and that meant going to Kidderminster. There are a lot of engineering works on Sunday, so my route via Hereford to Shrewsbury and Stourbridge Junction to Birmingham New Street were replaced by buses. After 7 days later, I have come to an end of my long train journey.
