NE scene on main lines into Waterloo at site of former Loco Junction, Nine Elms, 2011
NE view from a passing train on the multi-track ex-LSWR lines into Waterloo. This is the approximate location of Loco Junction, at which until 1967 locomotives of the great ex-LSWR Nine Elms Depot accessed the main lines from the south side, and the large Nine Elms Goods Depots (A and B) were located on either side of the main line. The New Covent Garden Market was established here 1971-4. [Further details of present-day features in this scene would be welcome].

Ex-LSW 0-4-4T in Nine Elms Locomotive Yard
Ex-LSW Drummond M7 class 0-4-4T No. 30245 (built 4/1897, withdrawn 11/62 but preserved in the National Collection at York) is seen in the yard of this large and famous Depot, which served the passenger trains from Waterloo and freight trains from Nine Elms Goods. It adjoined the latter to the south of the main lines, south of Vauxhall. In the 1950s the Depot had an allocation of nearly 100 steam locomotives of all types and it remained active until the end of steam working into Waterloo in 7/67, after which the New Covent Garden Market was built over the site.
