Hounslow Central. There is overheight protection just west of the
station.

I think the only sub surface train I have travelled on the route was
the Steam special from Northfields a couple of years back.


How far can a sub surface stock go down the heathrow branch these days?
Obviously the heathrow tunnels and houslow west are too small for one.


Does that mean the A and now D stock RATs go as far west as Hounslow
Central?
