165108 runs through Sonning cutting on 16 August 2016 with the 2R37 12:42 Paddington to Reading GWR service. By the summer of 2016 it was noticeable that the Class 165/1 fleet was looking very tired and shabby, in contrast to the Class 166s, all of which have been repainted either in GWR's simpler blue livery. or their dark green colour scheme. Note the faded yellow front end of 165108, in contrast to the darker colour around the light clusters. The dreaded march of the electrification masts has reached the bridge in the background.
