Sunderland South Dock Branch to reopen 2015


Recommended Posts

I always get the names of the branch boxes mixed up.... I think this is/was Londonderry Junction. It was taken out of use after the shed closed and within a few months the inevitable happened...1996

Edited... Hendon Junction Box? Destroyed by fire Feb 13th 1996.

 

As it was in 1990

Is it really 20 years since the lines were closed? I'm just surprised by the picture of the Class 60 in EWS livery, I would have expected that was much more recent

I think it was the lines to the quaysides that shut 20 years ago; the oil terminal was some distance from the quay, and that bit lasted longer. The EWS-liveried loco was dated 1997.
