Popis: A neutron radiography testing station has been developed exploiting the neutron beam of CERN's n\_TOF Experimental Area 2, located at the shortest distance to the neutron producing-target. The characteristics of the n\_TOF neutron beam for the imaging setup are presented in this paper, together with the obtained experimental results. The possible developments of neutron imaging capabilities of the n\_TOF facility in terms of detection-systems and beam-line upgrades are as well outlined.
