View eastward from A408 Stockley Road bridge, towards Hayes & Harlington station (out of sight) and London Paddington: ex-GWR main line to Bristol etc. via Reading. The grade-separated junction of the Heathrow Airport branch, which was opened in 1998, with electrification of the lines from Paddington, is not yet in existence in 1994. An Up IC125 express is here rushing away towards Paddington.
