Are any of these trains photographable from public places? I know the
83ts at Cockfosters can be done off the train (any nearby footpaths?),
South Harrow has a bridge right by as well but the others I am not so
sure on, can anyone help? All photos will be for website purposes!!

- The unit at London Road depot can clearly be seen from the perimeter wall;
either from Lambeth Road or St. George's Road. There's a "famous"
traffic-light equipment cabinet on St. George's Road from where many depot
photos have been taken, though you would need a decent zoom to get a good
pic of the 72ts from that particular place.

- The 83ts stored at Neasden Depot are all stored in the p-way sidings,
right next to the Quainton Street road-entrance to the depot. That/those
stored at Uxbridge can similarly be seen from York Road, or from the
deliveries road leading to Sainsbury's.

- The only public place to see the two trains stored in Cockfosters sidings
is from the station platforms, from where they are *very* distant.

- Some of the 72ts stored in Acton Works could also be easily photographed.
If you go into a small residential street called Park Place (off Gunnersbury
Avenue), at the far end of that is a sports ground, from where the stub of a
disused footpath runs leftwards. If you walk along this for a few hundred
metres, the 72ts (and some 62ts cars) are stored in the sidings to your
right.

- The unit at Lillie Bridge can be easily photographed from the West
Cromwell Road floyover; it's stored in a siding almost underneath the
flyover IIRC. It's also visible from trains passing on the West London Line.
