A small mile long length of the GWML free of electrification masts serves as a reminder of how this line has looked for generations. Here, taken from the B4107 road bridge in Steventon, 43162 is seen powering at the rear of the 11.29 Swansea to Paddington. In the very distance the march of the masts can be seen and in the background the remaining cooling towers of Didcot's power station.
