The spur from Colne Junction to Croxley Green Junction closed in 1968 when the Croxley Green to Broad Street trains ceased.  The trackbed, seen here looking towards Colne Junction, was used as an unofficial shortcut to the depot by staff who would clamber off a train which would obligingly stop at the old junction site near Bushey Arches!

From joe welch at 2007-05-14 17:54:39 : A great site, itbrought back many happy memories as I came down from Glasgow to work in the sheds as an electrician in 1970, I worked with a guy called Fred Aldridge, but I lost touch when I moved back up to Glasgow in 1971
