Bricklayers Arms shed
was once the biggest locomotive depot in South East London. It provided the
steam locomotives for a variety of services; from the expresses which raced
from London to the coast, to the more mundane local freight workings. After
over a century of service to the region it succumbed to property developers
in 1981. This page shows highlights the few features which have survived.
