Grand Union Canal, London Overground and Old Oak Common Depot near Mitre Bridge, London, 2013

Deutsche Version dieses Postings

Here are a few pictures I took near Mitre Bridge in London. One can see quite a lot of action there:

• The Paddington Branch of the Grand Union Canal passes nearby.
• Parallel to the canal (and quite a bit lower), there is the Old Oak Common Depot for HST locomotives, with the old GWR line running nearby.
• And finally, the London Overground's West London Line crosses both the canal and the GWR lines (Update: Corrected due to information from "Fast Line Floyd")

A few photos for the "signally inclined" are towards the end of the posting, showing a nice feathered home signal.
