70811 passes Chilson on 20 August 2023 with the 6C97 07:30 Honeybourne to Westbury recovered rails, returning from an overnight engineering possession. 66850 David Maidment OBE is bringing up the rear. As with many such trains, this was running very early. It had actually left Honeybourne 70 minutes early at 06:20, although this hadn't been reported when I left home. However, I was prepared for some early running and had left home early, but when I arrived and checked where it was, I was still surprised to find that it was approaching Kingham, just a few miles away. It's always worth photographing an engineering train on the Cotswold Line, but I much prefer the traction that I saw being used on a similar train at this spot 35 years earlier!
