Midland Main Lines

Birmingham to Tamworth and Nuneaton

by Vic Mitchell

The complex junctions and diverse industries in the eastern area of Birmingham are extensively illustrated. Some rural views can be seen beyond Water Orton on both routes, before encountering their several colliery connections.

The long closed main line between Whitacre and Hampton-in-Arden is shown in detail.
