LPPC DSL BW 0894 
 You can almost feel the air being shoved out of the way by this Brush Type 4 Class 47 as it slams through Slough’s down main platform with an Inter City for the west. The station still retains much GWR atmosphere from the glass behind the lone seated passenger, to the iron-work supporting the awnings. On the left is the Windsor Central branch bay. The line itself diverges to the left just beyond the road bridge, whilst on the right-hand side was the, now closed, branch into Slough Estates, which was one of the first industrial estates in the UK, established in the 1930s.
