Looking superb in the later afternoon winter sunshine at Bourton near Swindon, 43032 leads the 14.15 Paddington to Cardiff HST working. Notice the concrete covers over the pilings that have been dug to accommodate the electrification masts. This will mean that this superb view of the GWML will be completely ruined making this view impossible. Whilst this view looks a quiet rural one, the bridge on which I am standing is surprisingly busy for a country road and, being rather narrow, means that you have to keep your wits about you to avoid an accident!
