More about this scene

This is also known as Comberton Hill. The station approach is off to the left in front of the 'Catering' sign. The Oxford, Worcester and Wolverhampton railway opened on 1 May 1852, and amalgamated in 1863 with the Great Western Railway.

At Kidderminster the Carriage Shed project was completed in 2000 to protect a unique collection of railway carriages.
