The Stephenson Steam Railway stands on Middle Engine Lane, a road that looks very different today!
Here we see Middle Engine Lane on the 27th August 1964, with J27 65878 heading south towards the Tyne. The loco was built by the NER in 1922, one of the workhorses of the North East coalfields, at this time she was based at North Blyth (52F) from 1963 until withdrawn in October 1964.
