Title: Steam train at Acton Main Line this morning (9/7/2009) Post by: James Vertigan on July 09, 2009, 08:04:16 Hi all,
Posting this here because it involves a station on the Greenford branch, but please feel free to move it if it is more suitable elsewhere. Was at Acton Main line this morning waiting for 6:08 train to Paddington when I spotted a steam train over in the yard/sidings area at Acton Main Line. Was just wondering which one it was and why it was there today? Seemed to be of a dark green colour but I couldn't make out the name of it. Was a nice surprise to see it this morning belching out steam!
