Later, the first iteration of Crossrail involved a spur to take trains on
to the M&SWJ north of Acton Wells...
Midland and South Western Junction was nowhere near there :-)
The bit north of Acton Wells was Midland only.
Point of order, this *was* the M&SW Junction before being subsumed into
the Midland in 1871, and afterwards remained known as the "Old" M&SWJ
to distinguish it from the later line elsewhere in the country :-)
