50014 Banbury 24 April 1984

50014 Warspite heads north from Banbury on 24 April 1984 with the late running 1M10 05:50 Paddington to Manchester Piccadilly InterCity service. The town of Banbury can be seen in the background, but the view is about to be blocked by the new ring road, with the new bridge beginning to take shape on the left. Not only is the Class 50 now considered classic traction, but the bypass construction worker's cars, and even their crane also now look historic!
