A North London Line Journey by Adrian Vaughan.
About to leave England for County Kerry in September 1975, Adrian Vaughan had one last unfulfilled wish before departing Blighty for the Emerald Isle – to photograph the ‘fine signal at Acton Wells Junction’ and the rest of the route but discovered all the trains had barred windows. The driver, passing, took pity on him and took him into the cab, even washing his window!
This book is the result of the photos taken that day and some of the West London Line taken on walks a few years later. The book includes a helpful map of the North London Line and some of its connections.
Locations include Richmond, No. 2 box, Dunloe Street Home signal, Dalston Junction Station and box interior, Maiden Lane Junction signal box, Willesden Low Level (in the rain), Willesden High Level, Chelsea Basin sidings, the hallowed Acton Wells Junction, of course, plus many more track scenes with signals and signal boxes.
