43189 Shrivenham (Ashbury Crossing) 15 December 2017

Blue, green, blue, green, blue! 43189 Railway Heritage Trust leads a mixed coloured 1B25 10:45 Paddington to Swansea service past the site of Ashbury Crossing, Shrivenham, on 15 December 2017. Because GWR's application of their new green livery has been so slow, mismatched sets like this have become relatively common. Obviously only a few vehicles would get the new colour scheme, as the vast baulk of the fleet will be handed back when the Class 800s take over, so at least they are not wasting money!
