NewcomenJct_20110516_001_CC_JA.jpg - An early 1970s view of Newcomen Jct, with the original small bridge across the Royal Canal on the right. Just beyond the bridge the short branch to the steam packet harbour diverges, but by this time it had long fallen into disuse. Re-engined Metrovick A Class loco No.A58r heads past with a goods train from North Wall, while in the distance can be seen the one time elevated West Rd signal cabin. ©Barry Carse
