180104 arrives at Ascott-under-Wychwood station on 22 May 2017 with the 1W33 16:22 Paddington to Great Malvern GWR service. This is the only down train of the day to call at the station. Although there is some cloud in the background of this view, that is nothing compared with the large mass of cloud that was creeping up on the sun behind me. The sun disappeared and reappeared several times as the train approached at what seemed an agonisingly slow speed. Luckily it came to a stop just before the sun vanished for the last time. Although it did reappear sporadically as I was driving home, it was nothing like the full sun evening that the Met Office had predicted! |
