As is all too common with our hobby the sun often dives behind a cloud at the crucial moment to coincide with the passage of a particular train! With the new houses in the background that occupy the former Pianoforte site and the rear of the train bathed in lovely October sunshine, the 09.25 Southampton to Garston Freightliner, led by 66537, is in the shade! This working is a strange one and I have never quite understood why it is routed via the busy WCML rather than the more normal Oxford and Banbury route. Explanation anybody?
