Straight from Woolwich to Belvedere
Looking east from Woolwich Arsenal station along a 5.7km stretch of dead straight railway. It runs across what was once Plumstead Marshes, before the line bends south at Belvedere towards Dartford. In this view you can just see the next station at Plumstead, 800m away.
See Image for a 1959 view of the same bridge showing several tracks that have since been removed.

A view to Plumstead in 1959
Taken from the recently extended Up platform at Woolwich Arsenal station on a damp and dull day in 1959, looking eastwards towards Plumstead station. Sidings on both sides of the track still existed then, as did the signal box just right of centre. See Image for a rather more recent (and sunny) picture!
Taken in TQ4378, but from just beyond the signal box onwards is in TQ4478.
A closer view of the signal box can be found on Image
Scanned from a 2.25 inch square black and white negative.

Woolwich Arsenal Station sidings in 1959
The sidings on the East side of Burrage Road bridge seen from the Maxey Road bridge, on a rather damp day in 1959. In the centre of the skyline, looming through the rain and murk, is the tower of the Woolwich Town hall (in TQ4378). No other high-rise buildings in sight then!

Maxey Road bridge
The bridge crosses the North Kent railway line. There seems to be confusion over the speed limit at this point, with 30mph / 20mph signs at opposite sides of the road! There are also signs for the London Cycle Network.

Woolwich Arsenal Signal Box in 1959
The signal box at Woolwich Arsenal Station, seen on a wet and gloomy day in 1959, one of my earliest railway photographs. Taken from the end of Parry Place, which in 1959 ran to the edge of the railway retaining wall. There is some patterning on the photo as I was taking it through a chain-link fence.
The signal box remained in use until March 1970.
The photo was scanned from a 2.25 inch square negative and has been cropped to remove most of the sky with its chain-link pattern.

DLR Thames tunnel at Woolwich - southern portal
The tunnel is a twin bore under the river and was constructed in 2006-8. The southernmost section approaching Woolwich Arsenal is in cut-and-cover. It emerges here into a cutting with piled retaining walls and cross-braced with concrete beams.

Plumstead Road, Woolwich
The Crossrail site is on the left, but it will be many years before the trains begin to run, after an over 30 year negotiation to make it happen.
