43185 Denchworth (Circourt Bridge) 2 March 1988

Superb, but very brief lighting at Circourt Bridge, Denchworth on 2 March 1988. 43185 heads east with the 07:10 Taunton to Paddington service. Interestingly the train contains all three HST liveries current at the time. 43185 is in the then new InterCity 'Swallow' livery, whilst all the coaches retain the original blue and grey colour scheme, and the rear power car is in the Executive livery, which was such a radical departure when introduced in 1983. For some unexplained reason this picture was taken on Kodachrome 200, which I was using on what was an otherwise a dull day. The unexplained bit is why I didn't use my other camera loaded with Kodachrome 64 for this transient burst of sunshine! Some serious grain reduction in Neat Image has been called for!
