This illustrates the amount of freight in this part of the rail network. Due to Whitemoor yards being a short distance from here. They were built to hold the vast amount of freight for and from East Anglia. Closure came in the 1990s but were reborn in 2004 with the HS1 link from Dover to St Pancreas. Temple mills depot had to close and was relocated here.
