Default Trackbashers alert: Primrose Hill NOW!

I've just done St. Mary's curve, the line that links the District Line to
the East London Line at Whitechapel. Normally only used for stock transfers,
it hasn't seen a passenger train since before WW2. I rode on the front of a
stock transfer from New Cross to Neasden.

Pretty cool - nice view of the remains of St Mary's station, too.

To be pedantic, since during WW2. Through passenger trains ceased in 1941.
