66501 Japan 2001 passes Uffington on 16 April 2014 with the 4L31 09:03 Bristol to Felixstowe North freightliner. This location offers various trackside viewpoints, especially in spring, when this prominent tree is well worth including in the picture. In summer it is obviously less interesting, and in the winter its shadow reaches the line. At this time the spot was less easy to get to, as Network Rail had decided to close the adjacent footpath crossing. This happened in September 2013, allegedly for three weeks. Seven months later it was still blocked!
