Appleford: Rebuilt Bulleid WC 4-6-2 34046 'Braunton' heading north out of Didcot for Oxford and Worcester Shrub Hill on 12th September 2020. The train is passing Appleford Level Crossing at 1115. Sad to say, it did not look too well patronised but it was good to see steam back on the mainline. For those interested, this position is better suited in the afternoon as the sun is always in the south but does move from east to west.
