B430 Hinksey 21 June 1986

Looking superb in its GWR 150 chocolate & cream livery, B430 (51410, 59520 & 51368) passes Hinksey on 21 June 1986 with the 2B60 17:15 Didcot to Moreton-in-Marsh service. In true 1980s DMU tradition the destination blind is showing where it has come from, rather than where it is going to! Whilst the pseudo Great Western livery looked particularly good on this unit, the light grey roof was hardly very practical, considering the blackening effect that the output from four BUT engines can produce!
