On Sunday 10 June 1984 the Cotswold Line was closed for track relaying in the Combe area. Consequently, trains from the Worcester direction were terminating at Ascott-under-Wychwood, turning this normally little used country station temporarily into a relatively busy rail hub! B428 (51366, 59518 & 51408) is pictured at Ascott, after having arrived with the 2A75 09:32 Worcester Shrub Hill to Ascott-under-Wychwood service. The passengers had been ferried to their destinations in a fleet of coaches. |
