Great picture! Interesting to see the newly refurbished stock - much brighter colors for FGW!
Is that a Virgin Voyager that we catch a glimpse of on the other track?

Thanks for the comment. Yes, it is a Virgin Voyager, working the 08:25 Plymouth to Edinburgh service. Had it been a few seconds earlier, it would have ruined the shot! It's interesting to ponder that, a few years ago, 47840 might have been heading that train instead of the humble stock movement! 47840 is shortly to enter preservation on the West Somerset Railway, where she is expectred to be repainted in the earlier BR two-tone green livery.
