43144 Shrivenham (Ashbury Crossing) 9 August 2016

This is not quite the ordinary picture that it appears to be. Rather than yet another GWR HST from either South Wales or Bristol passing the site of Ashbury Crossing, Shrivenham, on 9 August 2016, this is something a little bit different. It is the 5L28 08:07 Worcester Shrub Hill to Paddington ECS. Appearing as a VSTP working, this is presumably in connection with the line being closed at Oxford, resulting in disruption to the normal HST diagrams via the Cotswold Line.
