165116 Radley 8 October 2009

165116 pulls away from Radley station on 8 October 2009 with the 15:07 Oxford to Paddington First Great Western 'all stations' service. While the limited stop trains do this journey in less than an hour, this one takes nearly two! Radley station has seen a phenomenal growth in passenger numbers in recent years, and much work has been spent on improvements, with special attention paid to the car park to reflect this. I counted fifty cars (admittedly one was mine!) in the car park, whereas in the 1980s it was usually less than ten. Looks like it might be a bit cloudy in Oxford!
