50036, outward leg of The Brewers Droop, London Paddington-London Waterloo (via Salisbury), Bradford Junction
As The Brewer's Droop railtour had a layover of some
2½ hours at Melksham to enable the passengers to 'take lunch' it gave me the opportunity to ride my bike to Bradford Junction. As I lived a couple of houses from the signalman on-duty, he allowed me access to this spot just in front of Bradford Junction signal box. 50036 is bringing the train slowly past with the secondman about to throw out the token for collection.
