BRITISH RAILWAYS IN THE 2010's
Westbury (Wiltshire) + Upton Scudamore (Wiltshire)
28th January 2013
On a wet and windy day, I visited Westbury Station and situated myself on the road bridge overlooking the platforms. Here I witnessed an EWS Class 08 Shunter doing it's business making up a train and FGW DMU Classes 150, 153, and 158 on their regular passenger duties to/from Bristol and the West and SWT Class 159's on the Portsmouth/Bristol runs. I repositioned myself on the platforms where a couple of Yeoman Liveried Class 59's worked into and out of the yards at Westbury and to/from the Quarries. (Merehead and Whatley). In their 'Swan Song' period the FGW HST's were still on the West of England/London Paddington route and are seen in this video. Later in the afternoon I bravely went to Upton Scudamore on the Warminster line, braving and fighting the awful weather, I just managed to see the usual DMU Class 158 and 150. I hope this video takes you back to the period with fond memories.
