LMS ‘Black 5’ No. 45305 Alderman A E Draper will be on the mainline today as it hauls the Polar Express.

The Polar Express trains are run yearly by Vintage Trains, last year, they had 4965 Rood Ashton Hall, but this year, thanks to a deal between Vintage Trains and The 5305 Locomotive Association, Black 5 45305 will be being used.

The trains are run between Tyseley Up and Down Thro Sidings and Birmingham Moor Street.

They run 4 times today, meaning you will have plenty of opportunities to see the locomotive today.

Here are the timings:

  • 1Z01 1443 Birmingham Moor Street to Tyseley Up & Dwn Thro Sidings
  • 1Z02 1526 Tyseley Up & Dwn Thro Sidings to Birmingham Moor Street
  • 1Z03 1643 Birmingham Moor Street to Tyseley Up & Dwn Thro Sidings
  • 1Z04 1733 Tyseley Up & Dwn Thro Sidings to Birmingham Moor Street
  • 1Z05 1828 Birmingham Moor Street to Tyseley Up & Dwn Thro Sidings
  • 1Z06 1919 Tyseley Up & Dwn Thro Sidings to Birmingham Moor Street
  • 1Z07 2015 Birmingham Moor Street to Tyseley Up & Dwn Thro Sidings
  • 1Z08 2109 Tyseley Up & Dwn Thro Sidings to Birmingham Moor Street
