3814 1949-07-23 East Acton

Recorded as Down Milk empties, the train sems to be headed by demountable milk tanks and is passing East Acton LTE Station
View SE, towards White City and Kensington (Olympia); ex-GW Kensington (Uxbridge Road Jct.) - Old Oak Common loop line, paralleling the Underground Central Line. The train is probably the afternoon Class D Wood Lane - Plymouth milk empties, the corresponding full tankers having come up from Penzance overnight - seven days a week. Here the locomotive is '2883' 2-8-0 No. 3814 (built 3/40, withdrawn 12/64 but preserved - now on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway).
