In the pouring rain, 165137 pulls away from Aldermaston station with the 09:12 Reading to Newbury First Great Western service on 1 August 2009. This all stations train generally runs hourly, with another hourly train to Bedwyn slotted in to give Theale and Thatcham the luxury of a half hourly service.  Only a couple of passengers wanted to travel to Newbury this particular morning.
