Crossrail sign at Old Oak Common
Old Oak Common may become a major interchange between Crossrail and a high speed railway line from Euston to Birmingham. It is also the point where Crossrail which is over ground from Maidenhead to Acton Main Line will go underground through to Paddington and Liverpool Street and on - so it is a major access point for tunnelling work.

Old Oak Common Depot
The turntable pit, which survives as a relic of steam operations at this depot. At the time of taking this photo the table itself had been removed for maintenance and the workmen in the shot were repairing the trackbed.
47121 stands on the right, on one of the roads that leads to other parts of the depot. Beyond is the light maintenance shed in which 2 Western class 52s await their next turn of duty.

Behind the locomotive sheds, Old Oak Common, 2011
In a transitional stage, with signs of redevelopment activity. The turntable (in line with the chimney) has been removed but the pit remains, fenced off. The far buildings are the surviving sheds, the near, just showing on the left, is disused, soon to be demolished.
