    This looks like it is outside the back of the lifting shop at Didcot before the new works was built. Behind 7018 is one of the auto-trailers that have now become the basis for the GWR Railmotor project. This would date the photograph sometime in the late 70's or early 80's, can't remember when the D&EG left Didcot Railway Centre.
