Would be good to have a photo from the rear (Porchester Terrace) like Mike Slocombe's. What is the façade made from - concrete? - and who owns and maintains it? Presumably the line section is now part of the Circle Line and the District Line between Paddington London Underground Station and Bayswater tube station. Open4D ( talk) 15:14, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
The façade is indeed above the present-day Circle/District between Paddington and Bayswater. Re your other questions, I can't find exact info in Day, whether 1963, 1971 or 1979 edns, nor in Croome or Simpson, however I have read it somewhere, that:
There are photos - front and rear - in Simpson. These are credited to Railway Gazette, but the issue of publication is not stated. Redrose64 ( talk) 16:32, 4 July 2009 (UTC)
I feel that we are slightly unclear on 23 and 24. It's like the information I would like is sort-of all there or implied (or perhaps in the comment above from a zillion years ago) but not clearly specified in the article. (Or I am missing the obvious and need put right?? That happens plenty too!) What I would love to see in the article is:
I'm sorry if these seem stupid questions, or over-familiar to those who know the topic. I don't, and I don't have or know the literature that experienced editors in the field probably do. I just came here on a tangent and, having enjoyed the article, thought it would be nice if the known history were made a little clearer. But YMMV. Best to all, DBaK ( talk) 08:45, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
