Found a picture of one elsewhere. *At first I thought it was a
Photoshop job, but maybe it is genuine; The Great Central Line became
LNER, so they would have served Harrow on the Hill. *I didn't know
there had ever been a LNER logo at that station though.


It's not my day is it; I forgot the link.

It's a genuine photo.

Probably best to refer to it as the Great Central Railway - referring
to the Great Central Main line wouldn't be technically correct as the
line from Finchley Road up to Quainton Road was jointly owned by the
GCR and teh Metropolitan Rly.

Referring to the Great Central Line carries with it plentiful
potential to confuse - people might even think you're referring to
Crossrail!
