24 Mai 2009 - Central Line, between Epping and Theydon Bois stations. Sadly, the finesse of the French-sounding name of the town appears to be lost on its mainly Essex-accented inhabitants, as well as the lady announcing the stops on the Central Line. On a very warm May day a unit gives it all it's got on its way towards Central London.
24 Mai 2009 - London Borough of Redbridge, Woodford station. A Central Line unit makes a dynamic entrance into the platforms and will terminate here after completing a run of the loop via Hainault and Chigwell.
24 Mai 2009 - Central Line, between Roding Valley and Chigwell, Essex. On a lovely may day an empty working runs towards Hainault depot on a very rural stretch of the route operated normally every 15 minutes. The route itself was once a "normal" suburban railway, taken over by London Underground during the "New Works" programme in the late 40s. The eastern portions of the Central Line still feel very much like a railway, thanks to the lovely station buildings and route sections like this one.
