A Down fast freight thunders through Hendon Station, the Down platform resembles a scrapyard!
View southward, towards St Pancras; ex-Midland London St Pancras - Leicester - Sheffield trunk line. The train is on the Down Fast, coming from under the A504 Station Road bridge. It is headed by Hughes/Fowler 5P4F 2-6-0 No. 42846 of Burton-on-Trent (17B) and may be hurrying home.
