An as yet unrenamed bus shelter, Royal Wootton Bassett
The honour bestowed upon Wootton Bassett by Queen Elizabeth II in 2011 was a grant of royal patronage in recognition of the town's role in early 21st century military funeral repatriations. Many names on display in the town now show Royal Wootton Bassett. Some do not yet. One example in this New Road bus shelter located opposite the Morstone Road junction.

HST125 passing the site of Wootton Bassett station (1)
The train could be going either to Bristol or South Wales. The lines to those destinations diverge about 500 metres further on. It is travelling quite slowly as it seems it had been halted for a while. It is on the 'down' line i.e. leading away from London. Any such line is so designated regardless of compass bearing. The train can also be seen here
