Mr Mystery 25 posts	Hi, There used to be an old steam train kept at platform 5 at Birmingham Moor Street. The other day I happened to notice that it's gone now. Does anyone know what this train was and where it's gone? Log in to reply

Mr Mystery 25 posts	Ahh okay, thanks. Do you happen to know why it was moved, or why it was left there to start with? Log in to reply

sloppyjag 480 posts	I think it was put there as part of the station's renovation project in 2002. Why was it removed? Not sure. Platforms 3 and 4 have been reconnected to the network but I don't think platform 5 (where the loco sat) has been reconnected. Maybe there are future plans to reconnect and it needed moved.

It was still there in 2011 when I visited. "Passengers for New Lane, should be seated in the rear coach of the train " - Opinions are my own and not those of my employer Log in to reply
