London Railways - 18th September 2023

​

Picture
​London's Railways like the city itself is colourful, full of variety and interest. On the 18th September I visited the Capital for the first time in three years, taking an anti-clockwise route around the city to record the latest changes to the London railway scene. Locations included London Paddington, Denmark Hill, Stratford, and Lea Bridge, as well as some tractional sight seeing along the way (covered in other galleries).
