Priestfield

Now withdrawn Midland Metro tram no.09 to Wolverhampton St. George's at Priestfield, on 18th March 2014. This tram stop is just north of the former heavy rail station of that name, which is where the Oxford, Worcester and Wolverhampton line met the GWR main line from Birmingham Snow Hill and which had platforms on both sets of lines. The Oxford line used to continue straightahead with the Birmingham line curving sharply to the left and the curve can be discerned in the background in this scene.
