With the low winter sun creating some lovely dappled shadows, 43017 'Hannahs discoveringhannahs.org' leads the 07.30 Carmarthen to Paddington through the Oxfordshire countryside. The train is seen passing the site of the former Knighton level crossing located between Uffington and Watchfield. This power car carried another name when it was in its Executive livery, then it was named 'HTV West' after the local independent dual television franchise that I grew up watching living near Bath.
