The 14.23 Portsmouth Harbour to Cardiff Central service pauses at Bradford-on-Avon worked by FGW's 158960. This view shows some of Bradford's fine townhouses behind the train. Just out of view in the centre of the image is the house that I spent the first six years of my life in back in the 1960s. I now live over a hundred miles from here in the home counties but still feel a strange affinity when returning to what I could justifiably call 'home' I suppose!
