47703 Shipton 18 June 1994

Parcels sector red liveried 47703 The Queen Mother calls at Shipton station on 18 June 1994 with the Pathfinder Tours 1Z56 07:17 Worcester Shrub Hill to Norwich 'Norfolk Explorer' railtour. The fact that vegetation is encroaching onto both platforms is a clue that this station is not the busiest on the Cotswold Line! A loco hauled train stopping here is something of a novelty, hence my reason for taken the picture, even in such poor light.
