66589 passes underneath the B4000 roadbridge at Shrivenham on 9 April 2014 with the 4L31 09:03 Bristol to Felixstowe North freightliner. This was running twenty minutes late, and although the weather was still OK at the booked time, the bright sunny morning was as usual starting to be replaced by broken cloud. Worryingly, a large black cloud, the edge of which can be seen on the left, was threatening to ruin the picture. Luckily the sun just managed to hold out! This girder bridge is due to be replaced as part of the Great Western Mainline electrification scheme. |
