FULL PARRY PEOPLE MOVER SERVICE STARTS MONDAY
Stourbridge Line – Sunday 21st June 2009

The full 10 minute frequency PPM60 service on the national rail line between Stourbridge Junction and Stourbridge Town will start tomorrow (Monday 22nd June) at 0547. To start with the full service will be in the hands of 139 001 as 139 002 has an air leak in the clutch, which is currently in the hands of the suppliers. No formal launch ceremony is currently being planned for the full operation which is heavily delayed. Read on for a few photos.
