Taken from the footpath crossing at the top end of Hinksey Yard (known locally as Tuckwell's Crossing), L423 (51361, 59513 & 51399) rattles underneath the signal gantry as it works the 2A21 14:50 Oxford to Paddington service on 3 March 1984. This location has totally changed since this picture was taken, and the cause of the change can be seen to the right of the train. Newly planted trees on the site of the then recently demolished Oxford gas works have now grown to form a complete wall of trees all along this stretch of line. The fact that some of the ground within the gas works site was allegedly contaminated doesn't appear to have stopped them growing!
