I now live on the Stourbridge Line and at about 10,20pm weekdays, the Tesco train from South Wales to Daventry passes my local station and I know that its onward route is Galton Curve, Soho Loop, Aston-Stetchford Line .

Yes, amazing isn't it, thinking of that now in 2023, when at the time we would never have dreamed of it being a treasured memory in later life. To think 'where's the time gone!'
As a Ward end Park goer you would know that to the left of the group of watchers the hill dropped steeply to where the brook from Southalls ran along, then into the 'cattle-creep' type of small tunnel under the embankment and into the lake. It is that embankment that I remember clearly being made from some form of light coal-like stone - I hope someone does know what it was.
