Hatfield station was a good place for Flying Coal. I'm sure Locojoe will remember overfilling the tenders with coal so as to get that bit extra in or on for the long run North. I myself cannot remember now how sharp the curve or indeed if there ever was one through Hatfield might have been but coal often came off there from overfilled tenders.
