47848 Launton 7 February 2025

47848 brings up the rear of the first passenger train to traverse the reinstated Bicester to Milton Keynes line, as it passes Launton on 7 February 2025 with the 1Z96 12:50 South Marston Euro Terminal to Milton Keynes Central private charter. 47746 Chris Fudge 29.7.70 - 22.6.10 is leading. Note the lines of newly planted trees on both sides of the line, so that Network Rail can have leaf fall low adhesion problems in 20 or 30 years time!
