66541 Compton Beauchamp 26 August 2016

After overnight rain, the morning of 26 August 2016 was clear and bright. There was nothing out of the ordinary in the local area to photograph, but the good weather was too good to waste, so yet another trip was made to Compton Beauchamp. Due to the massively delayed Great Western Mainline electrification, photographers have gained two whole extra years of photography at this well known spot. Here is yet another picture of the 4L31 09:03 Bristol to Felixstowe North freightliner, on this occasion hauled by 66541. I may have photographed 4L31 on countless occasions, but that will probably come to an abrupt stop once the wires go up!
