The third part of the Wyre Valley RailTrail is from Hartlebury to Kidderminster. I caught the train to Hartlebury. The route was easy to follow and easy to do. It included a disused railway line and a canal. It ended at Kidderminster railway station which was very busy as it was the Diesel weekend. The return train journey was from Kidderminster to Shrub hill, where yet again WMR terminated the train but luckily I could catch the train from Paddington to get back to Malvern

Wyre Valley Rail Trail Part 2 Droitwich to Hartlebury
As it was going to be a nice day I decided to continue with the Wyre Valley Railtrail, the Droitwich to Hartlebury section
I caught the train to Droitwich and aimed for Hartlebury. The walk was pleasant until I found a footpath diversion sign, whicn may have meant a lot to worcestershire county council (quoting footpath numbers for the diversion, not much use on an OS map!) The cause of the diversion was an enormous solar farm
9.4 miles were completed in 3h33
