A colourful pair pass at Ashchurch with the view looking north. Ashchurch is a superb location as trains can be seen approaching from several miles away in each direction. Often photographers equipped with binoculars can be found here. This was formerly an important junction on the Midland's Birmingham to Gloucester line with the old Midland line to Tewkesbury and Malvern running off to the left and that to Evesham and Barnt Green to the right (now cut back to some MOD sidings in the Ashchurch area).
