43160 Shrivenham (Ashbury Crossing) 11 September 2015

43160 Sir Moir Lockhead OBE speeds past the site of Ashbury Crossing, near Shrivenham, on 11 September 2015 with the 1B40 13:45 Paddington to Swansea First Great Western service. Just visible near the rear of the train are the old gantry signal, together with its modern replacement. Apart from the tops of the steel piles, now hidden in the grass, the latter is the only sign of the impending electrification at this location.
