Enfield Town Station

The Station c1945
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

A nice shot of Enfield Town Station, at the side of the station was the engine shed. I started work at for British Railways Enfield Town as an engine cleaner in 1953 and later became a fireman. We worked the steam trains from Enfield to Liverpool Street using type N7 0-6-2 Tank engines. Your photograph shows the station just the same as it was in 1953 and looking at it brings back memories.

RE: RE: Enfield Town Station

My father worked at Enfield Town Station for 37 years, we lived in Genotin Road. He used to work in the 'goods in' yard but when they went to electric trains the yard went. He then became a guard on the trains and then the station master. I am sure someone will remember John Monk, he was a man people would remember.
