180102 passes Shorthampton on 4 March 2013 with the 1W29 11:20 Paddington to Great Malvern First Great Western service. This location was cleared of lineside trees for the Cotswold Line redoubling in 2011, but since this photo was taken the bushes have regrown to obscure the view once again. It was good while it lasted, and I particularly like this picture, with the wobbly fence in the foreground, and the lovely early spring light. |
