Feltham Marshalling Yard, with SR 4-8-0T shunting
View eastwards, towards London: Clapham Junction etc.; ex-LSW 'Windsor Lines'. One of the largest marshalling yards in the country, Feltham was purpose-built by the LSWR in 1921-22 to handle almost all the freight traffic to and through London on the Southern Railway Western Section - about 5,500 wagons per day. The locomotive is No. 30493 (built 7/21, withdrawn 12/59), one of the Urie G16 class of four 4-8-0Ts specially built for shunting over the humps of the Feltham Up and Down Yards: it is working the Down Yard and passing Feltham East Box, the main line being on the left and the Up Reception lines next to it. All this complex was completely swept away by January 1969 and became a Nature Reserve.

Feltham: The Airman
Typical 1930s mock Tudor road house pub, this one occupies a prominent position in the angle of the junction of Harlington Road East and Hanworth Road. Reputedly the pub's one claim to fame is that the boxer Freddie Mills used it as a training base prior to his successful British light-heavyweight title fight against Len Harvey in 1942.

The same shot as Image some two and a bit years on. The place is under new management and looks to have been smartened up.
