Fantastic trains at: South Kenton, WCML, 11/08/26

A fantastic afternoon session spent at South Kenton on the West Coast Mainline and London Underground Bakerloo Line where we see services from London Northwestern Railway, London Overgound, London Underground, Avanti West Coast, Lumo and freight from GBRF and Freightliner.

The station opened on 3 July 1933 with access from both sides of the railway via a footbridge to the single island platform serving only the Watford DC Line; this footbridge (which started at the bottom of the embankment) was later replaced by a pedestrian tunnel, cutting out a long climb for passengers entering the station. The station was built in a more modern "concrete and glass" style construction including a "streamlined" waiting room rather than the brick and woodwork LNWR stations elsewhere on the DC line.

My next film will be from Tamworth on the West Coast Mainline.
