View of the branch line taken from the platform with Todenham Road level crossing keeper's house in distance. The arrival of the OW&WR severed the branch's original route to the Tramway's terminus and this section of track was consequently constructed. The sidings to the right were used to transfer traffic between the OW&WR and the branch until closure of the goods service on 2nd May 1960. On the left can be seen part of the passenger footbridge which was used as a thoroughfare as well as for passengers crossing the line. C1947
