L420 Froxfield 20 June 1984

Just as the sun starts to break through the early morning fog, L420 (51400, 59510 & 51358) passes Froxfield on 20 June 1984 with the 2A08 06:40 Bedwyn to Newbury service. Naturally this was the first local train of the day on the Berks & Hants line. Class 117s worked these local trains from the early 1960s, until replaced by the Class 165 & 166 Turbo units in the early 1990s.
