Default Croxley Rail Link hits the sidings

Curiously , looking at google earth and some pics online the track for
the croxley line is still in situ, even the conductor rail, except
that most of the bridges have been removed.


It mostly goes under roads - the few underbridges still seem to be
intact, apart from where it's been severed near the far end by the
bypass. The track was all still there when I walked the route in
December, including beyond the sever.

Or is this a new form of mothballing?


Strategic Rail Authority notices still up at the stations propose the
line will be closed on 18 June 2001. It also notes that services have
been "suspended" since 24 August 1996 for the construction of the
bypass.
