English: Down freight passing Thornaby station.
View westward, towards Bowesfield Junction and the division of main lines northward to Stockton and across Co. Durham to Ferryhill, Sunderland and Newcastle by three routes, also westward to Eaglescliffe thence Darlington or Northallerton and the South: eastward from here was Newport Yard, Middlesbroug with all its great industry, then Saltburn and the Cleveland lines to Whitby etc. Therefore passing through Thornaby was a constant procession of heavy freight traffic. Here a Class J freight is headed by one of the ex-NER W. Worsdell class P2 (LNER J26) 0-6-0s concentrated in the area, No. 65774 (built as No. 525 in 10/1905, renumbered in 1946 as 5774, withdrawn 7/61).
