A loaded stone train for the East heads slowly up the bank which connects the Western Region main line with the North London line. This provides access to the North, East and South across London. Straight on is the route to Paddington behind the photographer. An HST is seen heading west having left Paddington station about 4 minutes before. Electrification and the Heathrow Express link with the provision of overhead wires has meant this view is not possible now.
