37418, outward leg of Shooter's Swansong, 09.00 Hinksey Yard-London Marylebone (1Z21, RT), Oddington SP542160
37418 'An Comuun Gaidhealach' passes Oddington leading the second leg
of the Shooter's Swansong charter with 5008 'Thunderer' bringing up the rear. Having travelled down from Derby as the 1Z20 the train terminated past Oxford station in Hinksey Yard to then form this leg, the 1Z21 Hinksey Yard to Marylebone. Whilst conditions have improved somewhat from when I first saw the train at Heyford it was blowing an absolute hooley making it difficult to stand steadily on the exposed embankment of the bridge that crosses the line.
