Class 185, TP 11.17 Newcastle-Manchester Airport (1P24, 4L), Ferryhill yard An unidentified TPE class 185 heads south past Ferryhill working the 11.17 Newcastle to Manchester Airport. There was once a huge and strategically important marshaling yard on the land behind the signal box. This yard handled huge amounts of coal traffic from the pits on the northeast and Durham coalfields but as they closed, the yard has gone into terminal decline. Now, it is a mass a wasteland with just a few sidings where track machines appear to be stabled. Keywords: Class 185 11.17 Newcastle-Manchester Airport 1P24 Ferryhill yard
