A view towards the northwest includes the engine shed in the company of a diesel shunter, three Type ''JA'' Electro-Diesels (one still wearing ''Electric Blue'' livery), and a Type 3 diesel (later ''Class 33''). The Electro-Diesel on the far right is stabled on the line which leads to the turntable. © Roger Goodrum

This view of four withdrawn Class 71 Type HA electrics is thought to date from about 1977, the year in which the remaining members of this fleet were taken out of service. Hither Green ''power box'' is visible on the extreme left, whilst the refuelling shed can be seen on the far right. © Roger Goodrum
