Marsden Rail - 22 - The Lickey Incline Movie
The most famous gradient in England - over 2 miles at 1 in 37.5 - and lying between Birmingham and Gloucester, it posed major operating difficulties during the steam era when banking of northbound trains was required. In addition to many sequences filmed on the incline and at Bromsgrove there are sequences filmed at Stourbridge, including the climb from the Town Goods Yard to the junction together with views of Kidderminster. At Worcester, the practice of combining the Hereford and Worcester portions of Paddington expresses is seen, along with views of an industrial narrow-gauge line on the banks of the River Avon.
