Greenford Semaphore Signal

One of the handful of semaphore signals that still survive in London can be clearly viewed from the platform of Greenford station. This shot has only recently become possible again since Network Rail dusted down the chainsaws and cut down the vegetation that previously obscured the view (thanks for the heads up Always Santa Fe). A DBS Class 66 No. 66019 is seen joining the Acton to Northolt line (formally the New North Mainline) at Greenford West Junction with 6M22 the loaded binliner train from Cricklewood to Calvert... a train that literally stinks.
