43185 Highworth Junction 3 March 1994

The long way round to Cornwall. 43185 Great Western approaches Highworth Junction, Swindon, on 3 March 1994 with the 1C12 07:45 Paddington to Penzance service. Most trains to the West Country would obviously travel via Newbury, rather than via Bristol. The formerly rail connected Shell oil depot dominates the background, with the Rover Works directly behind.
