L418 (51355, 59507 & 51397) passes through a snowy landscape at South Moreton on 9 February 1991, as it runs along the up relief line with the 2C29 Didcot Parkway to Reading Network South East service. This was one of those trains that had a different departure time in the public timetable (11:45), compared to the working timetable (11:48). In either case, it was a few minutes late here, which is hardly surprising given the conditions. A purely local short distance Sunday train would probably be cancelled in such weather conditions nowadays. |
