These fabulous photographs show Newcastle East Junction before and after their renewal during the 1950s... Thanks must go to Hugh Fenwick for sending me these.
How on earth the photographer managed to get the streamlined Pacifics into both shots, I do not know. Pro-moves.
Oh, and this renewal was in 1949, not in the 1950s (that was my guess without better information when I first posted these)!
I'd @ everyone I know on here who's in the rail fraternity if it wasn't so daft... I love these shots so much.
