22. 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!

21. Looking towards Colne Jct just beyond bridges 3 and 3A, the signal is out of use and the tracks resemble a jungle, compare this spot with photo 19.Previous | Next22a The spur was carried over Wiggenhall Road on a steel bridge. The road still dips down and under the bridge site today, and the embankments remain on either side. A local DC train can be seen in the distance heading towards Watford High Street.
