43185 Great Western passes Hinksey Yard on 30 March 2017 with the 1W25 12:21 Paddington to Worcester Shrub Hill GWR service. It's nice to see a power car in the stylish 'Swallow' livery, but there are one or two differences between this repaint, and the real thing from two decades earlier. The grey panel around the lights is a modern addition, and the red line should be higher up, with most of its width carried around the front end, clearly noticeable on this power car in 1988. |
