L401 Moreton-in-Marsh 9 April 1983

The 2B08 06:04 Reading to Great Malvern service was booked to stand at Moreton-in-Marsh for ten minutes in the 1982/3 timetable. On Saturday 9 April 1983, L401 (51333, 59485 & 51375) waits for the correct departure time at the deserted station. Although nobody would probably take any notice of Oxford being displayed on the destination blind at the rear of the train, the fact that Moreton-in-Marsh was being shown at the front was equally unhelpful for passengers wanting to travel further north!
