Many thanks 33056 for details of current users of the Wembley to Willesden sidings. Clearly they have been adapted to handle modern trains.
My interest is historical i.e. the development of these sidings. I suppose it is reasonable to assume that the Brent sidings extending from Willesden junction towards Stonebridge Park, were developed early in the WCML’s history to handle increasing volumes of goods traffic, including the exchange traffic with the GWR, NLR and railways in the south (via the West London Line).
I wonder when the other ‘block’ of sidings (extending towards Wembley from Stonebridge Park) were added to the complex?
