GWR Hall 4-6-0 No 4940 Ludford Hall with a Wooten Basset-Kensington van train passing Iver on 19 July 1958. There was a milk depot at Wootton Bassett which despatched tanks to London, so (although clearly not on this occasion), this may well have been the reason for the train being timetabled to start from there. Otherwise it seems a strange place to start a train from.
