47459 races through Finstock station on 10 April 1987 with the 1A18 07:00 Hereford to Paddington 'Cathedrals Express'. The station had just been rebuilt on the opposite side of the line. Much better facilities were available for Cotswold Line commuters in those days, with a buffet car, and a BG next to the loco. No problem with bike storage in those days!
