Bakerloo Line railway in Kenton The trackwork here is actually shared between Network Rail's West Coast Main Line to the left and London Underground's Bakerloo Line to the right. A southbound Bakerloo Line train has just left Harrow & Wealdstone station and is approaching South Kenton station. For those that need to know such things a zoom into the photograph shows the trailing unit is No. 3534. The image was taken from the Conway Gardens footbridge.
