165111 Hinksey 2 January 2008

A line of Railtrack branded ballast hoppers make an interesting foreground to this view of 165111 passing Hinksey Yard on 2 January 2008 with the 13:55 Oxford to Paddington First Great Western service. Formerly a Second World War marshalling yard, Hinksey mow has a second life as a 'Virtual Quarry' ballast dump.
