Although through trains on the Cotswold Line have historically been worked by HSTs, most local services are DMU operated. However, in 2016 an early morning departure from Moreton-in-Marsh is HST operated. 43131 leads the 1P21 07:10 Moreton-in-Marsh to Paddington GWR service past an oilseed rape field near Chilson on 17 May 2016.
