20901 Stratton St Margaret 8 March 2025

The Balfour Beatty 'Drain Train' pictured parked at Stratton St Margaret on 8 March 2025, with 20901 at one end of the train and 20905 at the other. It had arrived as the 6J09 18:56 Welwyn Garden City Freight Depot to Swindon Transfer, and would leave later as the 6J09 00:53 Swindon Transfer to Uffington. I had photographed it from the other end in the morning, but returned to Swindon in the afternoon for a properly lit picture of the rear of the train. I almost turned back, as the nearer I got to Swindon the duller it got, until when I arrived it was fully cloudy. Luckily the sun came out again for a few minutes, before the clouds rolled back in.
