Class 50 No. 50 043 'Eagle' pulls into Reading with a London bound train, 19th July 1980.

5th August 2003 and little apparent change from the top view. It looks as though a new centre road is about to be constructed through the station and the area in the background still seems to be in use as a carpark. The original canopy ends still survive albeit with parts missing. ('Now' photo courtesy Tim Farmer)
