On a bright March morning K4 61194 The Great Marquess draws its train into the devastation of Cambois on the Northumberland coast. To the left the lines to the West Staithes have gone. In the foreground the Cambois Diesel Depot has gone. Behind the K4 Cambois Colliery has gone. Only the Grade 2 listed Pithead Baths remain on the right, slowly falling apart. In the distance the multiple chimneys of the Lynemouth smelter remain, although production here ceased in March 2012.
Location: Cambois Shed (former)
