47069, outward leg of The Pines Express, 07.48 London Paddington-Weymouth (via Bristol & various freight lines), Bradford North Junction Having brought his train to a halt, the driver of The Pines Express walks across to the tablet exchange equipment in the white hut. Once exchanged, his train will be able to proceed on to the Avon Valley line and continue its journey to Bath and Bristol. Notice the area of ballast where the driver is walking and the distance the signal post is from the track. This is because the line was once double track but has been singled. The remaining spur was completely removed in 1990 but there is consideration being given to its reinstatement due to the strategic importance of the line to and from Chippeneham as a diversionary route.
