St Pancras to Finsbury Park in both directions on that new link, and yesterday I finally did that new Ordsall Curve in the northbound direction.

Nearly back to all UK passenger track done, not that I actively chase track these days. That new bit on Sheffield Supertram, Acton Diveunder and Bermondsey Diveunder to do now

Whatever the junction is called just outside Norwich - Sheringham (including both platforms and crossovers at Cromer, for those who like these details).

Click to expand...
I should add, the 'new' platform at Holt. (I say 'new' on the basis that it wasn't there when I last visited in 1995!)

What's it called? It's called Cumbernauld
Friday 12 July

Canal Tunnels between St Pancras and Finsbury Park in both directions


Thursday 25 July

Ordsall Curve between Manchester Oxford Road and Victoria in that direction only

Excluding various crossovers for start and end of day services, the only bits of track that I have uncovered that has regular timetabled passenger services north of the Thames is the Halton Curve, Newton-le-Willows - Wigan North Western, Blackhorse Road - Barking, and Barking/Grays - Shoeburyness.

I still require a lot of track south of the Thames.
