47739 Robin of Templecombe & 47727 Rebecca head south down the Cherwell Valley near Tackley on 19 March 2009 with the 6Z48 13:05 Burton upon Trent to Dollands Moor Colas Rail steel empties. This was the second week that this particular train ran but not only was the weather poor in the Oxford area the previous week, but I was in Yorkshire anyway so couldn't get the shot. With settled high pressure weather conditions this time sunshine was virtually guaranteed for this picture, albeit very weak and hazy. However, just to prove that railway photography isn't easy a number of clouds started to appear from nowhere as the train was due only to melt away later. Luckily none of them got in the way at the critical time!
