BRITISH RAILWAY STEAM ERA MISCELLANY
Photographs in this gallery are of various items of railway trappings such as stations, signalboxes, engine sheds, signals and whatever else is not a locomotive. Took none of these, all have been bought and are part of my collection.

PETERBOROUGH - NEW ENGLAND LOCOMOTIVE DEPOT (2) - Seen here in 1967, just a year before the depot was demolished and replaced by the garden shed just north of Peterborough Station. New England had been replaced by modern diesel depots and the locos required only a tiny proportion of the old depot, most of which is being used for storage or is completely closed up. The gantry in the foreground was the water supply for the engines. All of the sidings to west of the running lines have also gone and no trace of the M&GN remains.
