165131 Wendlebury 13 March 1995

165131 passes under the M40 motorway at Wendlebury on 13 March 1995 with the 10:19 Bicester Town to Oxford service. This was during the transitionary period between the demise of Network SouthEast and the formation of Thames Trains. Although still running in NSE colours, this service was being operated by First Great Western Link. The motorway (which had been open for less than five years when this picture was taken) obviously carried less traffic in those days, or else I was very lucky not to have some brightly coloured vehicle spoiling the picture!
