Obviously a war memorial of some sort and connected in some way with LU. So I'll take a guess that it is a memorial to the staff of the Metropolitan Railway who died in WW1. At Neasden? I don't think it will be necessary to explain why todays date was chosen.

That looks like the memorial outside Oval station in front of the church.
Chosen today because it's Armistice Day - 11/11

Jtuthill There is indeed a memorial to fallen members of the LGOC at Leyton Garage but it takes the form of a stone panel on the right hand side of the main [bus] entrance. As far as I know, a wreath is still placed there every year.
