800008 & 800034 Shrivenham 14 July 2021

No need for the customary 1/2000sec shutter speed here! 800008 & 800034 very slowly pass Shrivenham on 14 July 2021 with the 1A14 09:30 Bristol Temple Meads to Paddington GWR service. The 4L36 07:39 Wentloog to Felixstowe North freightliner was late passing through Swindon, and rather than being looped at Stratton Green, it was left to run on to Challow. Consequently this train was rapidly catching it up, and was severely delayed as a result.
