43125 Compton Beauchamp 14 July 2016

Long after the electrification should have been complete at this location, there is still virtually no evidence of the Great Western route modernisation at Compton Beauchamp on 14 July 2016. 43125 speeds towards the capital with the 1L20 05:58 Swansea to Paddington GWR service. Nearly 40 years of continuous service on this route easily makes the HST the most successful British train of all time. They will be a hard act to follow, and will the Class 800 & 801 units still be around in 2056?
