Summary edit

Description
English: Watford: Disused railway to Croxley Green Thirteen years after its closure in 1996 and the trackwork of the Croxley Green branch line from Watford High Street station is still in situ, just visible in the snow bottom right in this view taken from the Wiggenhall Road bridge. There has been a railway here since 1862 when the branch line from Watford Junction to Rickmansworth was built. Around fifty years later the London & North Western Railway built a branch line off the Rickmansworth line to Croxley Green. Forty years after that, in 1952, the Rickmansworth branch was closed to passenger traffic, and in 1967 freight services ceased too, and the track was cut back to the junction with the Croxley Green branch.
