47079 Grove 26 October 1989

47079 passes Grove on 26 October 1989 with the 6C13 12:15 Calvert to Bristol Avon Binliner empties. A very poor quality image, but the only decent picture I took from this particular angle whilst this was still a two track mainline. Three years later work started to reinstate the former relief lines from Wantage Road (just visible in the far distance) and Challow. Also, note the completely rural background to this view, as this was before the large Williams Formula 1 headquarters was built behind the trees in the middle distance.
