WME Update Digest: January 2011

Amongst all the recent pubcrawl revelries that seem to have dominated my start to the New Year, there have actually been a few rumblings of updates as the WME galleries creak into 2011...

Topping the early charts is WME Solihull with a healthy smattering of additions. Pride of place goes to the new Exploring Knowle collection, showcasing a pretty village with shots of the Parish Church, the local park, the Red Lion pub and the village hall. Dorridge Station has sparked into life with some frontage scenes, a platform view and a peek inside the footbridge, whilst Solihull by Bus has been injected with photos of the 169 at Solihull Station and the old 671 route on layover at Olton.

The remainder of January's Top 3 has a distinct Salopian flavour with contributions from both WME Shropshire and WME Telford. Indeed, new collections are very much to the fore thanks to Shropshire's Exploring Broseley (comprising views of the High Street, memorial gardens and library) and Telford's Exploring Leegomery (glimpses of the community centre and neighbouring play area) - solid starts in either case for galleries that don't tend to get much attention.

Which other hitmakers have been making a quick impression so far? Well WME Wolverhampton has ticked over as usual so I offer you Midland Metro shots at Bradley Lane and Loxdale, a second view of the Flying Dutchman on Exploring Warstones, and a brace of bus shots involving the 892 at the old bus station and the Green Bus 4 out at Moseley Parklands. A brief mention too for WME Walsall, quietly going about it's business with appearances from Heathfields Bridge (The Walsall Canal) and the Railway Inn at Pelsall - and that pop pickers is your lot for this month, so keep checking back to see what makes the hit parade in February...
