Today a Cathedrals Express ran from Tyseley to Paddington and return via the Cotswold mainline. It presented the first chance to photograph a GWR steam loco (authentic for the route) since the re-doubled section was opened for use, thus looking very much like the days of the world famous Cheltenham Flyer. The loco is seen charging up Campden bank at Thistley Hill.
