View southeast from a footbridge carrying the path between Mill Way and Hale Grove Gardens. On the Left is the M1 Motorway - traffic is quite light in the middle of the day photograph. The large blue sign advises drivers of the junction with the A1 a short distance down the road - giving access to the City and Holloway as well as the A406 North Circular Road eastbound. On the right is the St. Pancras to Leicester railway line. Approaching is a class 319 electric unit in Southern livery operating a stopping service to St. Albans City station. In the distance is Mill Hill Broadway station where the opposite direction service can be seen in the platform - in this case the destination was Brighton. On the fast lines, another train can be seen approaching Mill Hill Broadway - a fast Bedford service which calls a Luton then all stations to Bedford.
