'London' could mean a whole lot of different things I would have thought within the boundaries of Greater London would be OK, but I'll play it safe and keep it closer to the centre. I do have some pics taken at East London in South Africa, but unfortunately not on the hard drive.

 

Class 45 'Peak' 45121 waits to depart St Pancras with a Midland line express in April 1983, while a Class 317 'BedPan' EMU lurks in the background.

This depot is tucked away beside one of the busiest junctions in London, where services from Victoria, London Bridge and Blackfriars/Thameslink meet with the East London Overground line and head south to Croydonpost-14351-0-12511400-1506763191_thumb.jpgpost-14351-0-50643300-1506763207_thumb.jpgpost-14351-0-51326500-1506763223_thumb.jpg

Somewhere on the DLR ages ago

Island Gardens or probably Mudchute I think - I can't match it up with my photos of Island Gardens*, but that's where there used to be a viaduct.
