In perfect evening lighting, 165129 arrives at Shipton on the Cotswold Line with the 17:00 Reading to Moreton-in-Marsh service on 13 May 1996. This was one of only a handful of trains to call Shipton at this time, and even then it was a request stop! Note the combination of materials used in the former Oxford, Worcester & Wolverhampton Railway bridge, with stone being used for the arch and parapet, and brick being used for the retaining wing walls. |
