43198, GW 14.00 London Paddington-Bristol Temple Meads (1C17), Ashbury crossing SU246878 
 HST power car 43198 was a late delivery being built in 1982 as part of a final and additional batch of sets to supplement the Eastern Region allocation. Initially, it was part of set 254036, the highest-numbered power car. Now earning its keep on the Western Region, it is seen passing Ashbury in West Oxfordshire under a lovely winter sky with the 14.00 Paddington to Bristol Temple Meads. Note the recently installed 'soft' fencing in the foreground, that compares very favourably with the more commonly installed 'hard' palisade type.
