A strange timetabling querk is the 07.40 Paignton to Paddington 1A12 service as seen here. Rather than travelling via Berks. and Hants. route it is timetabled to go via Bristol and Swindon. It is seen passing the site of the former level crossing at Knighton in west Oxfordshire with power car 43069 leading. This classic indigo First Great Western livery looks very smart against the pretty colourless winter background.
