GWR 6000 King George V with Pullman at Patchway - October 1971
I think this came from an envelope of my Dad's negatives marked 1962*, but they have got a bit jumbled up as I have sorted through to find ones that don't seem to have been preserved as prints in his albums.
It is worth viewing this at one of the higher magnifications as there is a lot of detail there - from a negative that is 8cm x 5cm. There are photographers all over the place, even between the tracks.
* Hunting around on the net, this looks more like its reappearance under Bulmer's patronage with their set of Pullman cars, in 1971.
7.12.2012 - now we know when, where and why - and in colour - John Freeth had an almost identical photo in colour, when this was on my Flickr photostream. His photo can be found at www.flickr.com/photos/60631240@N02/6092349170/in/photolist-ahmT9W-7vCEMZ-borbXp-bNcf6i-bqLHTC-ijtcDD-c1swb-5DeXwG-dL1Nph-7w1peS-NGUAF-6Hd3CP-7k95iD-bTGS7-GyfNf-78s2hh-asvRKU-8BTqDZ-4MxTA4-a91L84-7BWnn9-7zAHCE-22fr4F-4YdfMP-786CyP-7hw5gK-2ytt5d-9spxdf-9nenoA-78dBfW-dqyJu9-ieCmaC-jpycW2-39Ftnb-8S48nH-e66G97-4DYnqA-78pAzj-2a1CKW-bXatHA-9aciP2-5EDqLq-9ac6yB-9acdZZ-fgnEBB-e9NP1h-gBRXKL-7yiEhk-5HQ1ip-bY2nSm

Return to Mainline Steam - 6000 King George V at Patchway - October 1971
On Saturday 2 October 1971, 6000 King George V makes a triumphant return to mainline steam, following the relaxation of the ban imposed by British Rail in August 1968. The train ran from Hereford to Tyseley, via Severn Tunnel Junction and Oxford, and crowds thronged the lineside to witness this occasion. Here the KIng makes easy work of the steep incline out of Patchway Tunnel, near Bristol, on its historic journey.

Looking at the linked photo answered the question, on a bridge or a signal.

We lived at Olveston at the time, and I watched it from a bit further down the line, at the site of the old Cattybrook Brickworks in Over Lane. Brings back quite a few memories, - thanks for posting!
Nice selection of 1960s/70s cars too.
