WEST MIDLANDS METRO 4 OCTOBER 2019 - Martin Miller

Had another look on Friday, at the work site that still represents the Metro extension beyond Grand Central. I had thought that it would have moved on a little further as test running is supposed to commence this month. It does look as though the overhead has been terminated ready for the change over to battery power.
