165028 passes Shipton on 27 September 2020 with the 11:50 Long Marston to Aylesbury DMU Depot ECS. This was running 13 minutes early, but that was nothing compared with the 70 minutes early running as it headed up the line towards Bicester, after its speedy reversal at Oxford. A Chiltern Railways DMU on the Cotswold line is always worth recording, especially at an identifiable location such as this, with Shipton's tiny station in the background, and car park of the F.W.P. Matthews flour mill on the left. |
