43185 Great Western slowly pulls away from Moreton-in-Marsh station on Sunday 31 March 2019 with one of the final scheduled Cotswold Line HST operated trains, the 1P69 16:27 Worcester Foregate Street to Paddington GWR service. Just a handful of HSTs would operate over the line after this, and as this was booked to be worked by the InterCity liveried power car, I certainly wasn't going to miss it. I expected there would be some other photographers here to record the event, especially as Moreton-in-Marsh is an iconic location, complete with semaphore signals. However, nobody else was on the bridge with me, and it doesn't look like there are any other photographers on the station either. Very strange! |
