Having reversed at Twickenham to run back down the Kingston loop the tour turned on to the Shepperton branch at Strawberry Hill Junction and is seen here passing through Hampton. Although you cannot make it out on this small version of the photograph, on the high resolution original it is clear that the bus in the background is on route 111 running between Kingston and Heathrow Airport, currently run by Transdev (was London United). photograph by Ray Stanmore |
