Summary edit

Description
English: Up coal train from South Wales at Tramway Junction, Gloucester.
View westward, towards Gloucester (Central) and South Wales, to the left Gloucester (Eastgate) and Bristol; ex-GW Cheltenham/Swindon etc. - South Wales, ex-Midland Birmingham - Bristol main lines. (See SO8418 : Cheltenham - Paddington express leaving Gloucester). The locomotive is '2883' 2-8-0 No. 3830 (built 11/40). The GW Gloucester (Central) station is just visible in the distance, the Midland Gloucester (Eastgate) station being off to the left. Behind the locomotive is the ex-GW Horton Road Locomotive Depot. I am standing on the then very busy Tramway road level-crossing, which required two men to work the wide gates protecting the traffic - and to control the train-spotting kids. (The 'Tramway' title relates to the original Cheltenham & Gloucester Tramway that preceded the Railway).
