Under a threatening sky, 43022 passes Milton on 15 April 1997 with the 1A29 08:30 Cheltenham to Paddington Great Western Trains service. Note how only 43022 retains the InterCity swallow livery, with the rest of the train in Great Western's unfortunately short lived green and white colour scheme. Although offering a good view for eastbound trains, this location has two problems. It is totally impossible to get a picture of westbound trains without moving round to the adjacent bridge, and this is taken from the A34 bridge, where although there is a wide area of concrete to stand on, there is no official footpath. Although I haven't experienced it, I feel sure a visit from the boys in blue would result if you stayed there for any length of time!
