LMS Black 5 44871 takes on the 1 in 37 Lickey Incline with the Worcester steam Express 06/04/24 - 4K

I started out at 11am and went to a foot crossing in Droitwich but had to rush to a nearby bridge because the crossing was closed and I waited 20 minutes before I saw the black 5 come in the distance from Droitwich spa station to the bridge I was standing on.
After the bridge I got back to the car to try and catch the black 5 on the ECS to Gloucester at Ashchurch for Tewksbury and I made it with 10 minutes to spare and 44871 cam through the Station at speed.
Then after ashchurch I waited 2 hours to see the Black 5 absolutely thunder the Lickey incline.
It was great to see ​⁠‪@LiamsLocos‬ ​ ‪@blackcountrysteamvideos8021‬ ‪@Tobys_Trains‬ ‪@GreatBritishRailways1‬ ‪@crunchynutsteamfilms5043‬ ‪@JakeBSteam‬.
