7B12 with 59104 waits on the UML, first on its own, second with a westbound IET in platform 4 and third with 3S59 creeping along platform 3 hoping that the signal will clear to give access to the Swindon Transfer Yard. Indeed was the driver in a hurry to finish his shift as after stopping, he did creep a few yards closer to the signal! More of this train later.Copyright Colin and Ken

3S59 finally gets a red signal with a feather alongside and clearly is in a hurry to get on - as witness the blur on the rear loco as it passes! Copyright Colin & Ken

I nearly forgot - Colin was at the station before me and photographed 0Z69 Stoke Gifford to Hinksey Sidings - light engine 66414 via platform 1. Kind regards, Colin & Ken.

Many Thanks to you both.
