<b>Up mineral on West Coast Main Line near Kenton, 1948.</b><br>
View northward from by Northwick Park (LT) station, across the six tracks of the WCML between South Kenton and Kenton, with the over-bridge behind carrying the LT/Met&amp;GC lines from London (Baker Street/Marylebone) (to right), (to left) to Harrow-on-the-Hill/Uxbridge/Amersham/Aylesbury by LT and (by ex-GCR) Leicester and the North. The Up class J mineral on the WCML Up Slow line is headed by a recently repaired LMS Stanier 8F 2-8-0, No. 48636 (built 1943 at the SR Brighton Works, eventually withdrawn 8/67): as this was shortly after Nationalisation, it had been repainted in the earliest British Railways livery, before a BR emblem had been introduced.
