Having travelled up the Severn Estuary via Lydney to Gloucester and then via the Golden Valley to Swindon, 43108 leads the diverted 09.28 Swansea to Paddington past Ashbury Crossing near Shrivenham. I love the dappled lighting in this picture This time of year creates a very special light that is warm and getting low but one that still has some strength in it. Notice the pilings ready to take the electrification masts that will totally obliterate this lovely view.
