1989

Wearing "Kent Link" branding with NSE logos, but still in BR Blue and Grey, No. 415455 is seen at Cannon Street. As can be seen in this photograph, the terminus was in the thick of rebuilding, an office block comprising 9,500 tonnes of steel being erected above the platforms. Some of this framework had been pre-assembled at Hither Green. © David Glasspool Collection
