Up freight leaving Ferme Park Up Yard
View NE across the lines to the north of Harringay West station and the south end of the Ferme Park Yards; ex-Great Northern ECML. The class J freight, headed by Gresley J50 0-6-0T No. 68921, may well be going to South London via Blackfriars Bridge. Behind it another J50, No. 68926, is coming over the flyover from the Down Yard.

Birmingham Railway Carriage & Wagon Co. Diesel at Harringay West
A mixture of anticipation and dread accompanied the abrupt introdution of these unfamiliar main-line Diesels onto the empty stock workings into King's Cross. Here the first Birmingham RC&W/Sulzer 1,160 hp Type 2 Bo-Bo, No. D5300, is on an Up van train at Harringay - on which hitherto steam locomotives had operated and for another four years would still do so. This Type 2 1,160 hp Bo-Bo (later class 26) began work here, but the class were soon sent up to the Scottish Region and worked there for 20 years or so, but were not a great success. This 'pioneer' Diesel is preserved at the Barrow Hill Roundhouse, Staveley.
