This was taken on Campden Bank, near Honeybourne, Worcestershire, where the line towards Moreton-in-the-Marsh climbs steeply into the Cotswolds.  The photograph was taken from the point where the Honeybourne to Mickleton road crosses the railway, and the train is heading east towards Moreton.  At this point I was actually in Gloucestershire.  

I am reasonably sure it is 180106 that I've photographed; the lack of contrast on the livery means the number is not clear, but an internet search on the unit did suggest it was a FGW unit that worked the Oxford to Worcester route at that time.
