43197 approaches Finstock on 5 July 2018 with the 1W31 15:22 Paddington to Great Malvern GWR service. Extensive lineside clearance has recently been completed here, although only near the track, leaving the bushes and trees at the top of the cutting untouched. For this reason perhaps it was fortunate that the sun disappeared just before this train was due. Although the shadows were not completely covering the line, had the sun been out there would have been a large area of blackness on the right of the picture!
