A rare image from 1962 showing a brand new pair of Hither Green (London) based Class 33 diesels, D6577 and D6582, heading south towards Spital Bridge with New England Yard in the background.
These locomotives made their debut in 1961 and spent most of their lives on the Southern Region before being withdrawn in the late 1980s/early 1990s.
