I was going to say Outside Hammersmith, but I have a feeling I'm wrong.  |

I've fixed it now. I was being clever and posting it from my phone, but as I have pictures turned off on my phone I couldn't check whether I'd got everything right or not!

I'm still sure this is part of the Piccadilly/District so I'm going to say Turnham Green District Eastbound!?

Either way, the track was recently maintained - there's no condensation around the BS113 flatbottom weld, which implies that the infraco folks did a bit of thermit welding here the night before.
I think this is west of South Harrow, between the station and the gasworks spur. IIRC there is a rising gradient for eastbound trains as they ascend onto the hill that the station and sidings sit on.

I had a feeling it was the Central in the Perivale/ Greenford area.

I'm with Simon, I reckon it's the East End of Greenford WB Platform.
