Reading's fancy new station provided a suitable location to photograph 66723 'Chinook' powering through Platform 7 on 4V69, the 15:09 Quainton Railhead to Tytherington stone empties, on 8 January 2024. A second loco, 66759, was coupled to the rear of the train, presumably to simplify operations at Quainton, where it's not possible to run round.
