This photo depicts ''N'' Class No. 31413 at Bricklayers Arms in 1960, wearing the final version of the BR livery, complete with ''late'' crest design. Immediately to the right of the engine's front, in the distance, can be seen the brick-built 380-foot long engine shed, known as ''St Patricks''. Mostly obscured by the nearby brick post is the depot's huge water tower, which was situated to the north west of the 210-foot shed building. The Railway had running powers into a number of SE&CR sidings, including those at Bricklayers Arms, Hither Green, and Herne Hill. The company also had a goods depot situated at Stewarts Lane .
