Claydon LNE Junction

UK Railtours excursion behind 66110 on the Calvert spur from the ex-Great Central Railway main line approaching Claydon LNE Junction on 17th March 2018. The line from Oxford (now lifted for reconstruction as part of East/West Rail) can be seen in the background and this was also traversed by the railtour after it reversed at Claydon with consecutively numbered 66111 then doing the honours back to London Euston. The train travelled via Oxford, Didcot Parkway, Reading and Ealing Broadway and thence via the spur from Acton Main Line to Acton Wells Junction and then the spur to the West Coast Main Line west of the site of the former Willesden Junction Main Line platforms, closed in 1962 and now demolished.
