45125, Saltley, Birmingham, November 1983

With the cooling towers of Nechells power station in the background, BR Sulzer Type 4 No. 45125 passes Saltley with the 09.50 Newcastle - Poole on 12th November 1983.

 

Another view that has since changed out of all recognition. The power station closed in 1982 and the site is now occupied by the Star City entertainment complex but the gasholder on the right remains in situ albeit out of use.
