Old Oak Common is a semi-industrial area of London, between Harlesden and Acton.[1][2] The area is traditionally known for its railway depots, particularly Old Oak Common TMD which was decommissioned in 2021.[3] Together with neighbouring Park Royal, the area is intended to become the UK's largest regeneration scheme.[4]
