With a hefty covering of snow this morning, I have struggled through the elements to present a single parter for Easter Day. You may spot something that perhaps doesn't fit, so points for identifying this.  *Click for larger version* |

HB - STOP being silly. There hasn't been a Tiger at Ruislip Gardens since what 1997. But if you has said Perivale, that would be different  |

Yep, Ruislip Manor westbound.
I preferred the 1930s Holden shelters as well.

In the old shelter you actually had protection from the rain and wind because the roofs were longer and it had sides. Having seen the wet areas on the ground under the current one after a rainstorm I can safely reccomend that anyone seeking shelter may as well not bother walking so far down the platform!
And there arent as many seats as present in the old shelters...

Ruislip Manor westbound shelter, taken by our very own ChrisM  *Click for larger version* Tiger in the Gorky Park (officially Central Park of Culture and Leisure named after Maxim Gorky), Moscow. This was taken by Dmitri, cracking picture IMHO.  *Click for larger version* |

Ruislip Manor aswell. The old shelter was better. When were the old shelters demolished? I remember waiting in them, esp on the westbound platform waiting for a train to take me home from school to Hillingdon. |
