47463 (not 47460!), 13.20 Weymouth-Bristol Temple Meads, Fairwood Junction 
 The 13.20 Weymouth to Bristol Temple Meads passes over Fairwood Junction as it takes the line into the station with 47463 leading the rake of Mk. I stock. Note that the redundant headcode panel has been set to confuse us spotters by indicating that it is 47460. Today, this service would be formed of a unit of possibly three carriages, not quite the nine as seen on this service; how things have changed! The huge but totally dead elm tree to the right, a victim of Dutch elm disease dominates this view. Over forty years later in 2021, this scene is essentially the same but for the loss of the dead elm tree and the mechanical signalling. Of course, the trains are a little different too, see....... https://www.ontheupfast.com/p/21936chg/30014529096/x3-802114-gw-14-12-paignton-london
