Greenford Curve
This is one of those odd stretches of railway that it is very difficult for the lay person to understand what its purpose is! It forms the eastern side of the triangle of railways at Greenford and is a Network Rail line that curves off northwards and then eastwards from the line between South Greenford and Greenford stations. It then heads off back towards London paralleling the London Underground Central Line from Greenford past Perivale, Hanger Lane, etc. It is certainly not a route used by scheduled passenger trains, so possibly it is now some means of reversing trains in the Paddington area through 180˚. What is certain is that it is shown as the Great Western Railway's Greenford Curve on the Ordnance Survey's maps of 1920, long before any residential or industrial development took place in the area, and its alignment has dictated the similar curved shape of the more recent road to the east, the residential Conway Crescent. On the skyline in the distance, around the curve towards South Greenford, is a semaphore signal. This photograph was taken from the Lyon Way industrial estate.

Bennetts Avenue, Greenford
That is my faithful car on the left, a wonderful vehicle until you get on a motorway. But I do the best I can when required.

Branching off the Branch Line
The Greenford branch gets extremely branch line-ish up the top end. Trains creep along here and into Greenford station at about 5mph as if they're worried the track might come apart under them. Just before that there is a branch off in an eastwards direction. Nigel Cox has put in loads of info about it with his picture Image so I won't try to improve on that.
