43010 Challow 18 February 2015

Running under adverse signals, 43010 leads the 1A11 09:30 Bristol Temple Meads to Paddington First Great Western service underneath the huge signal gantry next to the new road bridge at Challow on 18 February 2015. It was running at reduced speed, as it was catching up with 66540, which had strangely not been looped here, as booked. Note that although the new bridge has been open for some time, the temporary footbridge on the other side is still in place, which explains the odd structure visible underneath the span.
