Notes :
(1) Original booked/timed route shown in the tour itinerary was:
Kensal Green Jn - Wembley Central (reverse) - (via LL Goods Lines) - Acton Canal Wharf Jn - Acton Wells Jn - Acton South Jn - Kew East Jn - Old Kew Jn - Hounslow - Whitton Jn - Twickenham - Barnes - Clapham Junction but, 'due to emergency engineering works taking place on the low level goods lines between Willesden Junction and Wembley Central' there was a late alteration to the routing, to: Kensal Green Jn - Willesden Jn HL - Acton Wells Jn, thence as booked. This was communicated to passengers via a photo-copy of the advice from British Rail which included revised timings from Dalston Western Jn onwards.
(2) Due to no signalman being available at Kew East Jn the train could not take its booked route and hence was routed via Kensington Olympia to Clapham Junction rather than Acton Wells Jn - South Acton Jn - Kew East Jn - Old Kew Jn - Hounslow - Whitton Jn - Twickenham - Barnes - Clapham Junction as booked.
