47597 Oxford 25 September 1987

47597 enters Oxford station from the up carriage sidings on 25 September 1987 with the stock for the 1F27 09:55 Network SouthEast departure for Paddington. I chose the viewpoint to include the remains of Oxford shed (81F) in the background, which by this date consisted of little more than the water tower. It was however still used as a loco stabling point, and a Class 37 can just be seen behind the van. 47597 is crossing a bridge over a backwater of the River Thames.
