A Class 165 and 166 meeting at Shottesbrooke on 15 May 1993. 165127 heads towards London with the 2A47 12:42 Reading to Paddington Network SouthEast service, while 166204 recedes into the distance with the 2F35 12:20 Paddington to Oxford. Both units look pristine, as indeed they should, both being virtually new. 165127 had been in traffic for just six months, while 166204 was just a month old when this picture was taken. Judging by the streaks coming down from the dark clouds in the background, it looks like the residents of Twyford are getting a soaking!
