Andy & 800024 & 800021, GW 14.30 Bristol Temple Meads-London Paddington (1A24, RT), Grove foot crossing SU393911
Andy takes in the scene at Grove a few miles
west of Didcot watching 800024 and 800021 work the 14.30 Bristol to Paddington express service. He is in the safety of a corral at one of the last few remaining flat foot crossings on the GWML. It is a rare treat to be able to stand in such an unrestricted position so close to trains passing at up to one hundred and twenty-five miles per hour but for how long this will remain one wonders?
