The recent removal of an obtrusive 1970s signal gantry at this spot has opened it up nicely but, as can be seen, this will not be for long as there are a pair of pilings just level with the power car that will accommodate some huge electrification masts thus ruining the view again! 43186 and 43091 power the 13.00 Paddington to Bristol Temple Meads express past the village of Bourton on the Wiltshire and Oxfordshire county boundary.
