West Country Class 4-6-2 34028 Eddystone passes Charndon on 1 November 2025 with Railway Touring Company 1Z28 07:39 Manchester Piccadilly to Reading 'Chiltern Explorer' railtour. This was accelerating away from a 25 minute coal and water stop at Steeple Claydon. Although this looks like a mostly sunny day, there was a huge mass of cloud behind me, so I was glad I hadn't gone to any location further to the west.
