47749 & 701034 Brimscombe 20 April 2023

47749 City of Truro passes Brimscombe on 20 April 2023 with the 5Q66 10:09 Willesden to Long Marston ECS, conveying South Western Railway EMU 701034 for storage. Although not obvious from this picture, the Cirencester to Stroud road is right next to the line on the left, and a picture could easily be ruined by an ill-timed lorry suddenly appearing from behind the bushes! The Thames & Severn Canal can just be glimpsed through the trees on the right.
