Apologies for this being so late, but SE13 and Robster presumably have also been away from the net today. Anyway, part 2 is below:  (click for a larger version) |

It's either Osterley or Park Royal, taken before the track replacement programme reached either of the western branches of the Picc.

Firstly, I apologise most sincerely for not getting part 2 up as promised yesterday, but in my defence, there was a drunken teen party next door, and I spent most of the night either talking to police or ambulancemen! More of that elsewhere!!
Meantime, this is actually one I would have known, without the full answer sheet in front of me. TheOneKEA, can you be more specific?

The reasons why it is either Osterley or Park Royal are: - the station is a Holden station - the station is in a cutting with heavy vegetation - the station is not busy - the tracks are bullhead rail, which could be found in abundance on both western branches of the Picc until 2004/2005 - the station has a 1980s-era PA annunciator - the station has the tile-style platform surface Having looked again, the tracks are on an inward curve, so I think it is Osterley. |

Well done TOK, this is Osterley. The photographer is David (UD), who also added the background to part 1 but did not say when it was taken.  (click for a larger version) |
