On the 7th March 2020 I noticed that tram 31 was back in service. This view from Temple Row. I initially saw it heading up Corporation Street (probably saw down Cherry Street or the North Western Arcade). Had to quickly rush to Bull Street Tram Stop to see the Cyrille Regis tram for the...

8 years ago was at least 3 old plinths with graffiti on them at the Museum Collections Centre. I don't know who the two outer ones were for. The one in the middle was from the original Thomas Attwood statue. Maybe there was two Dawson statues?

I was on the Cross City Line.

March 2019 from Dartmouth Middleway. March 2020 from Thimble Mill Lane. Still standing.

Birmingham & Fazeley Canal from the train into Aston Station. From Thimble Mill Lane towards the railway line and gritting depot. Lock 23 of the Aston Locks - beyond here the water was drained.

Not sure if this is HS2 related, but the latest views from near Duddeston Station.

Before the turntable. View from the train towards Millennium Point. Towards the Birmingham City University Eastside Campus. This was the site of the short lived student accommodation Curzon Gate. This was just before crossing Lawley Middleway. About to pass the current West Midlands Fire...

Chiltern Railways with 82305 and 68011 at platform 3 at Birmingham Moor Street Station.

Glad you liked them. Didn't want to go far, so only popped to Aston for a quick look around before getting the 67 back to the City Centre.

Maybe they clean it, but the photos are not looking close at the surfaces. You can see it on free open days there, or on organised ones. On my last visit, I could not see the other statues that went into storage apart from the old Thomas Attwood one.

I got the train one stop on the Cross City Line just to see the Turntable that HS2 has uncovered. From Birmingham New Street to Aston. There was initially an Avanti West Coast Pendonlino in the way waiting to go into New Street, but I just about saw it. Got some other HS2 photos from...

It is still at the Birmingham Museum Collections Centre, and has been for many years. On my two visits it was with all those classic cars and fire engines. This was in 2012, so 8 years ago, but probably hasn't been moved Viv.

Got some photos of the countdown clock to 2022 today in Centenary Square. With a tram.

Saw this tram up Suffolk Street Queensway while on Paradise Circus. Taken from the pedestrian crossing near Holloway Circus.

There is a new Sparkhill Pool now. The last one was demolished a few years ago.

Bit hard to see with the scaffolding in the way.

OK the last batch from in here. Ladies Side Steps down Ladies cubicles down here In the Deep End Showers One last look.

Next batch is up. The door - Conservation work in association with Historic England. Shallow End Mens / boys cubicles. I may have used these back in the 1990s. But don't recall them being so small for changing, and I think it was two boys per cubicle. The women / girls would have been on...

The old First Class Baths with no water, scaffolding and a temporary exhibition. Steps goes down to the pool floor. The exhibit is called Specular Reflecular. Hands art From the balcony as far as I could go. Although later saw other photographers going round to the other side, but I...
