'''Enola Holmes''' is a Legendary Pictures film, based on the book series of the same name by Nancy Springer, written by Jack Thorne, co-produced and featuring Millie Bobby Brown and directed by Harry Bradbeer. It stars Millie Bobby Brown as Sherlock Holmes' teenage sister Enola, with Henry Cavill as Sherlock Holmes, Sam Claflin as Mycroft Holmes and Helena Bonham Carter as Enola's mother Eudoria. Enola discovers her mother missing and she sets off to find her, becoming a sleuth as she outwits her famous brother and unravels a dangerous conspiracy around a mysterious young Lord.
Preparations for filming began the week before. At Kidderminster parts of the concourse were repainted from their normal GWR colours into maroon, while posters and other props appeared referring to Basilwether station. The station buildings at Arley were repainted green with the station sporting a 'Ferndell' running-in board.
On 17 July, the final day of filming, an early morning train ran from Kidderminster to Bridgnorth while a helicopter took aerial shots. The Although set in 1884, the train consisted was an early 20th century consist of [[GWR 2857 Heavy Goods Loco|2857]] with the [[Carriages#Set_Toplights|the Toplights set]] of [[GWR 3930 Full Third|3930]], [[GWR 9055 Nondescript Saloon|9055]], [[GWR 6913 Brake Composite|6913]] and [[GWR 9103 Nondescript Saloon|9103]]. It did not include [[GWR 1257 Siphon G Bogie Milk Van|'Siphon G' 1257]] which was part of the set used for filming at Arley.
The SVR was contractually bound not to publicise the filming or the film being shot, although photos from publically publicly accessible viewpoints showed the changed station names and allowed the film to be identified. In June 2020, 'First look' articles about the Enola Holmes film, including still images, first appeared in the press and on YouTube.

The photograph was taken on Platform 1 at Arley (features such as the Station Bridge and reflections of the station buildings and signal can be identified), with the carriage being [[GWR 3930 Full Third|3930]].
