Craven Road, Maidenbower, Crawley
An area of Maidenbower next to the railway with road names on a railway theme. All that I recognize are either mainly LBSCR locomotive engineers or locomotive names on the Bluebell Railway, except Stanier, who was strictly GWR/LMS with no locomotive on the Bluebell as far as I know.

A similar view to that in 2009:
Image, changes are the provision of lights and on the far side an extension of cover of 33 m using a flat span. This is to accommodate additional sidings.

Railway bridge VTB3 128
The bridge as seen is nowadays for a footpath only. It consists of four abutting brick arches carrying six or seven tracks. Network Rail has under construction facilities for servicing Thameslink trains in 12-car formations, which involve adding a further five tracks and a road across the footpath on this side, with the new span abutting the existing bridge. The span will be of flat precast concrete beam construction, lowering the footpath headroom to 2.7 m and obscuring the existing arch profile beyond. It will add 33 m to the footpath cover. On the plus side there will be footpath lighting, which the existing bridge does not have.
