47535 Bathampton 5 April 1990

47535 University of Leicester passes Bathampton on 5 April 1990 with the 1A27 09:03 Bristol Temple Meads to Paddington InterCity service. Not only has the loco now gone (being cut up at Old Oak Common in 2004), but part of the field on the right has also gone! The re-routed A4 trunk road now parallels the railway here, swinging round in a curve to pass behind the farm in the background. Large bushes have grown up along the roadside, changing this viewpoint considerably.
