43187 passes the site of Ashbury Crossing, near Shrivenham, on 13 March 2017 with the 1L55 11:29 Swansea to Paddington GWR service. I had noted this mismatched livery combination heading for Wales earlier in the day, and after consulting the diagrams, was prepared for its return in the afternoon. In the foreground is the truncated road at the site of Ashbury level crossing, which was closed and replaced by a footbridge in the 1970s. |
