Air raid

Air raids on London, which first began on an intensive scale on September 7, occasioned a certain amount of disorganisation to transport services of all kinds.

The L.N.E.R. locomotive damaged beyond repair in the air raid on York, on April 29, 1942, was No. 4469, Sir Ralph Wedgewood, a class "A 4" Pacific.

1984, Steve Harris, "Aces High", Iron Maiden, Powerslave. There goes the siren that warns of the air raid / Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak / Out for the scramble we've got to get airborne / Got to get up for the coming attack.
