166217 approaches the site of Yarnton Junction with the late running 09:37 Worcester Foregate Street to Paddington First Great Western service on 27 February 2008. This is one of a handful of Turbo operated services over the Cotswold Line in 2008, the remainder being worked by HSTs, which are supplanting the troubled Class 180 units on the route. This photo is taken from inside the V of the former junction with the Fairford Branch Line, which headed off across the fields to the left of where I am standing. The Fairford Branch closed to passengers in 1962 and freight in 1970.
