Silvertown Scrap
The remains of the John Fowler four-coupled shunter (4210076 built in 1952) in the yard outside Thos. W. Ward's scrapyard at Silvertown on 5 March 1985. Two scrap box wagons are to be seen in the exchange sidings behind. St.Mark's church is seen in the background, now fully restored and used as a community centre. It closed as a church in 1974 and was seriously damaged by fire in 1981, remaining in a derelict state for many years.
