Ilford

View south-east from 345044 with the ex-11.19 service from Liverpool Street to Shenfield crossing the Ilford flyover on 18th May 2022. This opened in 1947, two years before the electrification of the ex-LNER suburban services, delayed by WWII, and switches the slow tracks from the south side of the alignment to the north with fast trains passing underneath. The lower tracks seen here are carriage sidings with the fast tracks to the left of those, beneath the flyover.
