81: poems about trains- trip to brummagem

A rollicking romp.  The honor of Birmingham is at stake, but  shared nobility of character will prevail.  This episode is a two-fer:   as well as the poem itself, you get a singalong of a song referenced in one of  the stanzas ( The Warwickshire Lads, if that sounds enticing).  I'm reading all the poems in the collection "RailwayRhymes" edited by Peter Ashley and available here   if you want to read along.  Here are all the podcast episodes from this series: https://www.zenglop.net/zenglop/poems-about-trains/
