  1. Went to Camden shed just before it closed. Unfortunately i only remember 2 locos and they were Coronation class.I don't still have my notebooks from those days [i wish i had] so i don't know what other locos were there

  3. Camden Shed did have a turntable but not a roundhouse as such. The more famous original one at Chalk Farm more famous for hosting The Doors and Pink Floyd etc.
    It was a difficult shed to get around but was visible en route by train from Euston to Willesden and Old Oak Common which were easy by comparison.

  4. I worked at camden between jan 1956 till april 1960 as a trainee driver aka fireman.I was a very friendly place to work .I left because steam was coming to a close when the big Delta diesel appeared...Bill Costello

  5. I found Camden shed hard to get into (unlike Cricklewood, Willesden or Old Oak). You had to pass the Shed Foreman's office! And when you were in, those DC lines seemed very close and you needed your wits about you to be sure you were on a shed line- quite scary. Great to get up close to those great Coronations on shed AND thundering up Camden Bank.
