With the sprawling housing estates of Grove visible in the background, 90035 is pictured engaged in high speed pantograph tests on 14 November 2019. The train is the 5Q96 14:49 Didcot Parkway to Swindon Transfer overhead line test train, being hauled by 67028. Apologies for the poor quality, but in order to use the very high shutter speed required for this broadside shot, an ISO of 6400 had to be used in the late afternoon gloom. |
