Two Bakerloo line trains pass near Wembley Central
The London & Birmingham Railway opened from Euston to Boxmoor in 1837, and on to Birmingham in 1838. In 1846 it became part of the London & North Western Railway. Suburban services were diverted in 1912 to run over the "New Lines", which had just been built: these follow the route used today by Bakerloo line trains. The latter first operated over this section in 1917.
Apart from the West Coast Main Line and the local line operated by London Overground and the Bakerloo line, there is a huge area of sidings extending for two miles, from Harlesden almost to Wembley Central. At their widest these are 350 metres across. Passengers on Bakerloo or London Overground trains at first follow the northern edge of the complex through Stonebridge Park station. Just before Wembley Central, the Bakerloo and Overground pass under the main line to emerge on its southern edge and here the Wembley Brook is crossed. The Wembley Brook is a very short tributary of the River Brent.
This is the view from the long footbridge between Lyon Park Avenue and London Road, just to the south of Wembley Central station, looking in the direction of Wembley Central. The Wembley Brook passes under the tracks just ahead. The Bakerloo train on the left is heading towards Harrow & Wealdstone and the one on the right towards Elephant & Castle.
