70807 passes through Ascott-under-Wychwood station on 18 February 2015 with the diverted 6M50 07:55 Westbury to Bescot engineers train. The severe landslip at Harbury has caused this train to be routed via the Cotswold Line, allowing the very rare opportunity to photograph a freight train on the southern section of the route. Amongst all the modern signage and station furniture, there is a nod to the line's former owner, with the provision of GWR style station seats, one of which can just be seen to the left of the loco. |
