Angerstein wharf is a freight only branch off the line between Blackheath and Charlton (Angerstein junction). Not entirely sure if this is the main "north Kent line" as it and it exact relationships with the Bexleyheath line are an unresolved issue on wikipedia. As i understand it aggregates trains run to here from various sites around the south east and beyond (via the west London line) for the construction trade. see the map page 2 and the small mention on page 3. Service frequency is roughly 3 trains per day (page 4). No details seam to be available form this document as to weather its electrified.

:Have a look at Google Earth, 990 metres west of the flood barrier. The line's not electrified: on the main line you can just make out the third rail, but there's definitely only two rails on the branch. [[User:Moonraker88| |

Angerstein wharf is a freight only branch off the line between Blackheath and Charlton (Angerstein junction). Not entirely sure if this is the main "north Kent line" as it and it exact relationships with the Bexleyheath line are an unresolved issue on wikipedia. As i understand it aggregates trains run to here from various sites around the south east and beyond (via the west London line) for the construction trade. see the map page 2 and the small mention on page 3. Service frequency is roughly 3 trains per day (page 4). No details seam to be available form this document as to weather its electrified.

- Its Network Rail route "SO 290B", and its defiantly not electrified (p71 of the Network Rail Rules of the Route [[1]] )
Angerstein Wharf & 'Angerstein Railroad' article
A new article named Angerstein Wharf has more information on the 'Angerstein Railroad'. I would think that all the railroad cat lables should be moved to that article. I'd do it myself, but I'm not a member of any of the railroad task forces.--TGC55 (talk) 14:05, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
Vandyke costume
Angerstein in Reynolds' portrait is wearing a standard masquerade "Vandyke costume", with some features of Early Stuart costumes as painted by van Dyck, in the same vein as Gainsborough's The Blue Boy. Prominently featured false talk about alleged (by whom?) bastardy, and reiterated "slave trade" references, linked at each return, mar this lightweight article.--Wetman (talk) 08:30, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
