I don't know the precise location but I believe it's somewhere in the South East of London
I can remember seeing it on the TV in a armagedon fiction series last year

Hi and welcome to the Railway Forum,
I was going to suggest the same as Gray, Near the approach to Croydon from the M23 side I used to pass under a similar looking bridge although Road layout looks wrong for it to be that particular one. Regards |

Hi Healesc, welcome to the forum.
Lets try and date it shall we. There's a Ford transit and is it a Hillman Minx ? So it's possibly 1960's or 1970's. There's no catenary in the picture, but I don't know how much of today's OHLE was already up in the 60s/70s. Also it doesn't look like any route I've ever driven, so I'd be inclined to rule out South East London suburban lines (although I've only been driving since the 90's, so it could have been different then). NB, this doesn't contradict Gray, as Croydon is South Central lines ! Who's next ? Last edited by Flying Pig; 25th November 2010 at 21:37. Reason: tailcovering |
