In a brief patch of sunshine, 31160 passes Cornbury Park on the Cotswold Line, with an engineer's train returning from track relaying work at Ascott-under-Wychwood on Sunday 4 May 1986. This location is just south of Charlbury station, and the tower of St. Mary's church in Charlbury can be seen on the horizon. This loco was to gain minor celebrity status three years later when it was adorned with the hand painted name Phoenix whilst wearing Railfreight Distribution livery. |
