Title: B1 Mural at PAddington Post by: eightf48544 on June 13, 2013, 11:09:54 Haven't been to Padd for a while until yesterday, noticed that the B1 mural between Platforms 13/14 and 12 had been painted out.
Has somebody worked out that B1s were very infrequent (if ever) visitors to Paddington? Also lots of work between Taplow and London for electrification.

I never thought of it as a B1, pity that. Wouldn't that be more typical for Marylebone with the ex GC/LNE?.Has somebody worked out that B1s were very infrequent (if ever) visitors to Paddington? Also lots of work between Taplow and London for electrification. Lots and lots of lineside work being undertaken, you're right. Lots of concrete bases being put down, I presume for huts and transmission stands for the overhead?. Most of the Brunel bridges have gone :( replaced by more modern concrete and steel ones. I hope they last as long!

Difficult to work out what work is for what project at the moment!
