The tram network
Well, after all the mysteries last week with the signalling works that no one seems to know anything about – this week I’ve got to a works where I’ve got so much information – and loads of pictures – that I’m going to be in difficulty knowing what to choose.
Incidentally – with last week’s signalling works. I put out an appeal for info via the editor of a railway history magazine. I’ve had various emails and some of them are from men who really really study the history of railway signals. Not one of them knows anything about that factory at all. But thank you to all
of them for getting in touch.
When I started writing about Charlton I said that I would look at works which were connected to the Angerstein railway as a start to describing Charlton industries. On the east – the Charlton – side of the line, there was an important works right on the Woolwich
Road. I am sure many people will remember the ‘Airfix’ building where a line of large brick gables spelt out A I R F I X in capital letters. It was demolished in the 1990s and I always understood that this was in order to recycle the high quality bricks it was built from. The actual original site is now a car parking area alongside the Angerstein Line and apparently in the possession of BOC Gases. Of course, it wasn’t originally built by Airfix –but by the London County Council.
The original way into the site was from Woolwich Road down a turning just past the Charlton side of the bridge which takes the Angerstein Railway over the main road. This is Felltram Way and now it goes absolutely nowhere except to some houses, and a car repair workshop. It was named after A.L.C.Fell who was the Chief Officer of the London County Council Tramways. And this was the Central Repair Depot.
Greenwich seems to have had some sort of a special attraction for the LCC Trams. There was of course Greenwich Power Station built originally to provide power for the entire tramway system. Also later on I will get further on in Charlton to the Tramatorium where London’s by then unwanted trams were sadly stripped and burnt. But here next to the Angerstein railway trams were repaired and cleaned. The site was chosen because of its rail access – it was connected to the Angerstein Line from 1911 - and because it was close to the river and wharf facilities. The seven acre site cost £3,850 and the works was opened on 6th March 1909 by the Chairman of the London County Council. They were said to employ 1,000 people there – and yes, some photographs show women at work there and not just as tea ladies and receptionists.
Initially only trams from south London were processed because of
the difficulties of getting vehicles across the river. In 1926 there was an agreement with the Metropolitan Electric Tramway Co. to let LCC trams over some of their system to access the repair depot. However by 1931 alterations to the Kingsway Tunnel meant that this was unnecessary.
It was a requirement of the Metropolitan Police that all public service vehicles should be overhauled and repainted every year –although in the 1920s this was extended to once every two years. There were over 1,000 tram cars and new services were planned, so a facility to undertake the work was urgently needed. By the time the depot was ready it was already too small and an extension was immediately ordered. Another third extension would have allowed 1,800 trams to be services every year but was never built because of the Great War. It was eventually opened in 1926 with facilities for ‘Pullmanisation’ which

seems to mean comfier seats and a nicer interior. In the late 1920s a large stores department was also added, thus freeing up space in working depots.
It might also be noted that in the Great War some of the capacity of the works
was used for armaments manufacture
There were also a multiplicity of other departments besides routine cleaning and maintenance – a foundry, blacksmith, tinsmith, pattern making, and much more. There
was special equipment for plough repairs – that’s the device under the tram which connects with the power source – and other features.
Half the ground floor space was however used for painting and drying the vehicles. Upstairs were offices and an apprentice school.
In the main pit was a transverser which ran the whole length of the building. This had been specially made locally by Appleby’s, whose works was on the Peninsula on the site which is now Hanson’s aggregate works.
Throughout the works was a narrow gauge railway system where trolleys were moved around by hand. At some stage in the 1980s – when all of this was long gone – I wickedly and dangerously trespassed up the side of the Angerstein line when you could then look down into the area of the old tram depot which had by then been demolished. The whole of the ground level was laid out in a network of rails and included a circular turntable. I guess all of that was pulled up years ago and
that nothing remains even in the undergrowth along the bank.
Trams were moved about the site by a ‘small saddleback steam locomotive’. On arrival the tram would be inspected. The next day the car body would be put on a moving ‘ropeway’ and overhauled as necessary. Meanwhile its ‘trucks’ and motors would be taken elsewhere to have their own inspection and overhauling procedures. Seat cushions were removed, and all electrical fittings inspected, tested, and probably replaced. Next the car would be washed down and then various parts spray painted black. Back on the ‘ropeway’ the body would be painted in colour and the various texts and letters applied as transfers.. This all took around 16 hours and there were usually eight cars in the depot being processed at any one time.
At the end of the work the newly clean and bright tramcar was taken along Woolwich Road to Charlton Church Lane and back – which doesn’t seem to me to be a long way for a test run. However it was then taken to Camberwell and the Chief Inspector for another test run. It would then
have to be re-licensed by the police.
As a relic of the tramways I remember a metal structure left on the side of the road down near the Blackwall Tunnel entrance. I looked it up and found out it was a tramway telephone box for staff use. I guess it had been left as a little monument to the trams. However – come the Olympics and some ‘tidying up’ on the Peninsula and it was gone. I don’t suppose they knew what it was anymore than I did.
I must admit to not remembering the trams at all, despite my great age. Brought up in Gravesend we only ever had buses – LT Green buses to the west, M&D to the east and you dare not get on the wrong sort of bus in the other company’s area I am aware of a lot of nostalgia for the trams and perhaps a realisation of how efficient they were, and how they should have stayed..
Oh – and Airfix – I really don’t know about them. A couple of years ago I actually bought a history of the Airfix Company and it didn’t even mention Greenwich and/or Charlton. Not once.
