It's the purple train! I am waiting until I can ride the Elizabeth line from end to end then I will come up to Reading. Also want to hop off and on the train at the new green park station as part of the trip. It's amazing the variety of electric poles - why not just use a single design?

Lots of 125mph action here!!!

Boogies Trains nice spot! I never noticed that! Why only one carriage attached do you think?!
The load is it's support coach so this is effectively a light engine working. Possibly heading for WCR Southall.
