On a much brighter day, 37606 leads a classmate through WWRd with the EPS Barrier wagons

By the River Wandle. 1983/4.

I think this may have been from the first film I put through this camera.

66102 passes Factory Junction entering Wandsworth Road on 6O24 14:34 Wembley Yard to Hoo Junction empty JNAs. The power station is almost unrecognisable being covered over, apart from the famous chimneys on view. 16.06.2021.

On the same grey day, an UID RFD 47 tows 3 Class 92s from Wembley Yd down to Dollands Moor

The 6O97 14.10 Thorney Mill – Angerstein Wharf freight.

58042 'Petrolea' crawls towards a red at WWRd with the 6O66 Acton Yd to Angerstein

Another view at Wandsworth Road of the 12:50 Battersea Park - Tonbridge test train. I've used this view to compare with earlier views taken here.

The Cliffe to Purley/Salfords and return 6Y94 Purley to Cliffe 'BRETT' Hoppers were a Hither Green chuck out and literally any combination could be seen on this working during the mid to late 90's. Here, Inter City 'Shoeboxes' provide the power as they climb away from Factory Jn

A grubby Coal Sector 37229 passes WWRd with a short Engineers train from Hoo Jn

The beauty of a visit to this Freight hotspot in the 90's was not knowing what was going to appear on certain flows. One prime example was the Aggregate traffic to Purley and Salfords from Cliffe.

Hither Green chuck outs 37154 and 33025 are about to erupt as they head the 6Y94 empties back to Cliffe. (re-scanned Print)

Metaphor in bricks and mortar: we no longer ride on the sheep's back.

73136 'Kent Youth Music' leads a classmate through WWRd with a short Engineers train for Hoo Jn

Last sunny shot of a superb day and what a belter!! 37025 'Inverness TMD' is seen minus its BR Large Logo Double arrow as it heads a Crane on an additional Three Bridges to Hoo Jn Engineers working

Stanier 'Black 5' 44871 passes through the remains of Wandsworth Town viaduct at East Putney heading the 1Z83 14:09 London Waterloo to Windsor & Eton Riverside 'The Royal Windsor Express' on Tuesday 16th July 2019. Originally the London & South Western Railway built a junction here in 1889, between Putney and Wandsworth Town, to enable direct running of trains between Clapham Junction and East Putney stations. The Southern Railway (the successors to the L&SWR) terminated passenger services in 1941, and the decking of the flyover was eventually removed after being condemned in 1987. This viaduct originally carried eastbound (up trains) from East Putney round to join the main line at a junction near Putney Bridge Road. The former westbound (down) line towards East Putney still exists, on the long brick and overgrown viaduct to the right, and is used frequently for various non-passenger operational train movements to and from Wimbledon Depot, with two-way working on the single track.
