After photographing the Plant this morning I was halted by the closed level crossing awaiting 1A16 to Paddington which arrived 4 min late meaning it was still in Platform 3 when !C40 ran in heading for Penzance

The Paddington train was headed by 43155 The Red Arrows, while in Platform 2, the Penzance train was tailed by 43022 The Duke of Edinburgh's Award Diamond Anniversary. See below ;-

Many thanks Roger.
