Seen from the over bridge on Rebecca Road. The bridge over the train is on a private track and not accessible to the public. The train is the Cotswold Venturer, operated by the Railway Touring Company and hauled by Gresley A4 pacific No. 60009 Union of South Africa. This locomotive is soon to be retired from active service as its boiler 'ticket' is set to expire. This was at about 16:48 on a February afternoon and suitably flat and gloomy.
