The C2C line seen from Front Lane bridge
The line between London and Tilbury was opened on 13th April 1854 by the London Tilbury & Southend Railway (LTSR) on their new line to Tilbury, which split from the Eastern Counties Railway (ECR) at Forest Gate. The London, Tilbury & Southend Railway (LTSR) direct line from Bow to Barking (avoiding Stratford and Forest Gate) was constructed from west to east in 1858. The route to Southend, however, was not direct, taking a considerable diversion from Barking via Dagenham Dock to serve the port at Tilbury. Between 1885 and 1888 a new direct route from Barking to Pitsea was constructed, and the line here east of Upminster opened on 1st May 1886. This is now the C2C line. This view is from the bridge carrying Front Lane over the railway.

London Underground track
At the very front of the depot was a labelled real-life diagram of the four-rail track configuration used on the London Underground network. The leftmost rail and penultimate rail on the right are the running rails whilst the penultimate rail from the left and rightmost rail are the positive and negative supply rails, where the electrical current from the underside of the train feeds into and powers the train along. View taken looking east-southeast, with the bus stand and car park in the background.

An RLH bus
Notice that the upper-deck emergency exit window of this RLH double-decker is divided unlike that of the Routemaster to the right of it. There is also no facility for a rear destination blind; this was because the RLH-class was not originally intended for London Transport. But the RLHs did carry rear number stencils in the rear lower-deck window. View taken looking south.
