This popped up in my Facebag timeline today. It's black and white film of the 1950s. There's road traffic, Moorgate, the Widened Lines and stuff around Kings Cross.
Of note there's some interesting shots of Kings Cross Goods, with wagons being capstan shunted.
It always amazes me how fast road traffic was back in the day. There's a lovely shot over the Kings X goods yard with a Scammell mechanical horse in the distance belting along at what must be over 40mph!
