47553 passes Hinksey Yard on 28 July 1983 with the 1A61 14:15 Oxford to Paddington service. The wartime marshalling yard was barely used at this time, as can be guessed from the various rusty sidings. Just visible in the background, waiting for 47553 to clear the section, is 50032 Courageous working a southbound Speedlink trip freight.
