This long telephoto view of Dauntsey Bank clearly shows the steepness of the incline faced by eastbound trains on Brunel's Great Western Railway route from Bristol to London, a line not normally associated with steep gradients. 43192 City of Truro leads the 07:38 Paignton to Paddington First Great Western service up the incline on 9 August 2007, and is just approaching the point, at milepost 86, where the 1 in 100 gradient eases to 1 in 660. The picture is taken from the overbridge near Tockenham Wick. The name of the road (Trow Lane) refers to a previous form of transport in the area - the Wilts & Berks Canal.
