Class 25, 25175, descends from Acton Wells Junction towards the Great Western mainline with a train of 6 wheeled milk tankers returning empty to the West Country. This is a type of traffic that is no longer handled by the railways - now exclusively carried by road tankers. Behind the train on the left is part of Leamington Park Hospital. The hospital opened in 1905 as Acton Isolation Hospital and closed in 1983. It was replaced by a housing estate.
