43026 Steventon 26 March 2017

Not quite the mundane HST passenger service that it appears to be. This is in fact the 5Z27 14:30 Paddington to Bristol Temple Meads ECS, with 43026 Michael Eavis leading. It is pictured passing the still mast free Steventon on Sunday 26 March 2017, with the remains of Didcot Power Station in the background. I had hoped to photograph the 6C03 13:19 Southall to Severnside Sita binliner here, but that was cancelled. While an ECS HST may not be quite as interesting as a refuse train, the motive power is certainly more photogenic than a Class 66!
