Port and Orange - a photo on Flickriver

Port and Orange

            66778 leaves the DP Port’s London Gateway and runs alongside Stanford Le Hope Marshes with 4m46, the 1155 departure for Hams Hall.

Opened in 2013, London Gateway is built on the site of the Shell Haven refinery which opened in 1916 and closed in 1999.   However, the railway here predates the refinery significantly, having opened in 1855 to serve the lobster fishing village of Thames Haven.   Public passenger services ceased in 1880, although workmen’s trains ran until 1958.

This image taken using a 5m pole.  I have photoshopped out a badly placed (from my perspective) signal.
