One of a number of pictures I took on Great Western Park back in Feb. 2012 on a frosty day with the power station in full steam. I didn't submit this one at the time as I thought it was a bit samey, but only a year later much of Didcot Power Station was closed down. This scene, with the cooling towers giving it maximum, will never be repeated, so here's a bit of history. Update:- the last three cooling towers were demolished today, August 18th 2019.
