47443 Ascott-under-Wychwood 30 June 1987

47443 passes Ascott-under-Wychwood on 30 June 1987 with the 1A10 06:04 Hereford to Paddington InterCity service. Although being near the longest day the sun is already well up by 07:40, unfortunately it is still rather head on at this location so early in the morning. Just visible in the background are Ascott-under-Wychwood's level crossing barriers, and the small corrugated iron hut (on the left) that marks the site of Ascott's former small goods yard, which was still in use as a coal yard at this time.
