A slight livery variation seems to exist on 43026, with the panel containing the headlights and horn grille being in a slightly lighter shade of blue. Presumably this is the result of fading paint and a partial repaint, but the effect is certainly noticeable here. On 7 August 2014, 43026 leads the 1A09 07:12 Taunton to Paddington First Great Western service past the site of Ashbury Crossing, Shrivenham. The old platform of Shrivenham station can just be seen beneath the bridge in the background, but is the lone Scots Pine tree on the right another remnant of the GWR? Although not in the usual station approach position, the Great Western made frequent use of Scots Pines where any tree planting was required.
