In the very last rays of the setting sun, D1015 Western Champion passes Fairwood with the 6Z52 15:55 Quidhampton to Tavistock Junction freight on 14 October 2009, conveying fifteen calcium carbonate tanks for storage at Burngullow. The train has just run round at Westbury, and although now having made up some time after the delay in running round at Salisbury, has had to wait for 43021 to head west, before following on just two minutes behind. Therefore it was traveling very slowly at this point. |
