159008 Lower Wyke 12 July 2025

159008 passes through the chalk cutting at Lower Wyke on 12 July 2025 with the 1L26 06:40 Exeter St Davids to Waterloo South Western Railway service. 159007 should have been attached to this train at Salisbury, after it had arrived with the 1A26 07:36 from Castle Cary. However that was running 54 minutes late on the approach to Salisbury, so the connection was not made. Obviously the original plan was for this unit to wait, as it was 15 minutes late when it passed me.
