802020 passes through Shipton station on 22 January 2023 with the 1P41 09:55 Great Malvern to Paddington GWR service. I hadn't initially planned on going out this morning, but the heavy frost presented an ideal photographic subject, even if there was little prospect of any sun. When I noticed that the 'To All Our Key Workers - The Nation Says Thank You' liveried unit was on the Cotswold Line, I decided that the short journey to Shipton was well worth while, especially as the station is surrounded by trees, which even at 11:00 were luckily still covered in frost. |
