A set from an autumn Saturday in 1995 along the Western Region mainlines out of London.
I came across this by accident, it's a view that has, literally, haunted me in my mind for years as I've wondered if it was in my imagination. I've a feeling I did another trip here, but who knows?
Taken from the roadbridge just east of Hayes & Harlington, this HST is heading into London, fortunately on the up slow. The station can be seen in the distance behind the train.
The bridge here opened in September 1992 as a direct dual carriageway route across this part of west London, but seems to hardly feature in pictures I've seen. It wouldn't be much use now for photography because of the electrification.
