165118 Moreton-in-Marsh 15 August 2009

165118 leaves Moreton-in-Marsh heading empty stock to Oxford on 15 August 2009, after arriving earlier with the 10:21 First Great Western service from Paddington. As the line from here to Evesham was closed for engineering works in connection with redoubling the line, it gave the opportunity to photograph trains using the little used crossover at Moreton. The Turbo is seen here about to regain the up line after leaving 'wrong line' from the down platform. Normally I would be glad of this brief burst of sunshine on a generally cloudy day, but due to the time of day the side of the train is virtually completely in shadow - never satisfied!
