There was a track there until 1988 when it was removed during a track layout and resignalling remodeling. |

Liked your photo.What is the rest of your itinerary for your stay in England? I was in London for three days years back. If/Whenever I can get back there, on my list, would be to walk whats left of the uncompleted Northern Line extension routes. - tours are organized of these areas http://www.abandonedstations.org.uk/Northern_Heights_1.html Further northwest there's remains of the old Metropolitan Line beyond Quainton Road out to Brill and Verney Junction. http://www.abandonedstations.org.uk/Brill_branch.html http://www.abandonedstations.org.uk/Verney_Junction_line_1.html |

(LOL!)I'll be going to Shildon, the London Transport Museum (I was there two years ago) and the Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch Railway (15" gauge). |
