BLS "Crompton Weekend", 7th to 9th March 2020
BLS "Park Royal Parkinson", PoV 47746, Greenford East Junction, 9th March 2020
View from the leading cab of 47746 as the BLS "Park Royal Parkinson" comes off the curve from Greenford South Junction to Greenford East Junction and crosses to the former up line, heading for Park Royal. The now rather ramshackle remains of the former GWR main line from Paddington to Birmingham (aka New North Main Line) now only reach as far as Park Royal, the line then severed for HS2 preparatory works at Old Oak Common West Junction. Parts of the Greenford Junctions are still controlled by GWR lower quadrant semaphore signals operated from Greenford East Signal Box, the last such signals in the London area. 13:23½, Monday 9th March 2020. Digital Image No. IGMP56787.
