50020 Coates 4 October 1987

50020 Revenge passes the site of the long closed Coates goods station on 4 October 1987 with the 3A16 15:40 Gloucester to Paddington empty vans. The source of the River Thames is in the field behind the train and the Thames Head Inn is situated on the main road next to the former station entrance. The very narrow road underbridge near the old station site is probably the most familiar landmark to motorists passing the site today.
