Day 2/3 of this regional railway trip.
-----
The second day of my trip within and around Birmingham takes us up along the northern half of the Cross City Line, from New Street up via Four Oaks to Lichfield Trent Valley, featuring a lot of Class 323s as we stop off at a number of smaller stations along the way, including a longer stay at New Street to begin with.
