North end of London-Euston track-layout.
Remodelled in 2000, as part of the West Coast Route Modernisation. One can notice that some tracks are fitted with a live rail (750V DC). These are used by Silverlink Metro services (fitted with 313s and 508s), calling at all stations between London and Watford Junction. They share their slow tracks with London Underground (Bakerloo Line) between Queen's Park and Harrow & Wealdstone (2 live rails, +630V DC and -630V DC) 10th December 2003.
