66535 passes Uffington on 22 October 2011 with the 4V50 10:54 Southampton to Wentloog freightliner. In order to include this overhanging branch in the picture, I had to fight my way through the undergrowth that surrounds the remains of the long closed Wilts & Berks Canal. Even after clearing away much of the nuisance branches and brambles, I still had to put up with a large branch pushing into my back as I took this. It is ironic that with such a large open field in the foreground, I had to squeeze into such an uncomfortable position just for the sake of a better picture! |
