Imperial Wharf (West London)
26th January 2013
On a beautiful Winter's morning, I made my way up to London and set up near to Imperial Wharf Station on the West London Line, between Clapham Junction and Kensington Olympia. Amongst the Overground services from Stratford and Clapham Junction in the hands of the Class 378 EMU's, were the Class 377's on Southern/Midland services. After the rush hour period had died down a little, Several Freight services ran past, one towing DBS Locomotive 92042 'Dead' hauled by EWS Locomotive 66027 and several other class 66 hauled freights. "Pathfinder's" Rail Tour from Crewe to London Liverpool Street, via a very convoluted route over the Southern and Western regions, 'The Buffer Puffer 10.0' was captured twice, with a pair of DRS Class 20 Locomotives in charge. 20312 + 20308 leading and at the rear of the train DRS Locomotive 37409 'Lord Hinton'. I hope this video takes you back to the period with fond memories and feel free to comment, good or bad, all comments are read, and greatly appreciated, but it is not always possible to answer each individually.. Many thanks to all subscribers and for the likes, also to all those viewers whom over the years, have kindly shown an interest and appreciation in my material.
