43017 Swindon 15 July 1989

43017's ex-works livery is slightly marred by the addition of a dead pigeon on the front end. It is arriving at Swindon on 15 July 1989 with the 09:30 Weston-super-Mare to Paddington service. The track curving away to the right in front of the train is the route to Gloucester via the 'Golden Valley'. Somebody already seems to have an argument with the newly installed one way system sign!
