Newcastle Quayside Goods
Sunday morning on a grey and wet Quayside in May 2006. The Tyne Bridge dominates, with the red and white Swing Bridge beyond. Partially clad in white for maintenance is the High Level Bridge, with the Tyne & Wear Metro Bridge visible through the piers. The King Edward Bridge stands beyond. The Quayside branch, once operated by Gresley's two class ES1 electric locomotives, arrived from Trafalgar Yard via a tunnel behind the camera. The branch closed in 1969 see image 20118.
