Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Old ex-Great Northern 0-6-0T with brakevan at Ferme Park.
View eastward at the south end of Ferme Park Up Yard, with the flyover behind. There were about 65 of these Stirling/Ivatt J52 saddle-tanks working from Hornsey and King's Cross Depots in the 1940's, substituted by Gresley J50's from about 1950 and then in part by Diesel shunters. The antiquated J52's must still have been popular with railwaymen, but they made such a noise constantly struggling on their own on the Ferme Park flyover that after the War local residents insisted on transfer freights over the flyover having an engine at each end, also whistling was forbidden at night. There was indeed constant activity day and night in these Marshalling Yards and added to the noise was the dirt that settled on everything, especially washing on clothes-lines.
