Further Notes
CL - Sun 01/07/1888; RO - Wed 01/03/1893.
ACD - Wed 01/10/1902 - CPLGB p28/48.
However, CPLGB p48 states that this section of line (it is shown as two separate entries, Harrow Rd. - Acton Wells Jct. and Child's Hill - Stonebridge Park) were 'From 01/07/1905 to 10/1908.......used for through services between north of England and Portsmouth, etc.' Preliminary investigations suggest one train in each direction reversed at St. Pancras. (Other through trains to the South Coast went via Ludgate Hill.)
Did any services utilise the north curve from Brent Jct. - Dudding Hill Jct?
Pending further investigations, any information/clarification most welcome.
