Bank Hall Locomotive Depot in 1948: two ex-Lancashire & Yorkshire engines outside the smaller through Shed: ex-L&Y 1F 0-6-0T No. 11535, fitted with dumb buffers and swinging spark-arrestor for working in the Docks; behind it is Class 30 6F 0-8-0 No. 12782. (Beyond can be glimpsed an 8F 2-8-0 with the unusual combination of 'M' as well as the BR initial '4' added to its number).

Recording Locomotive Sightings 1943 - 1968
A generation of enthusiasts recorded the movements of locomotives around the railway system. These records of visits to locomotive depots have been collected and carefully analysed to provide an overall portrait for the period 1943 to 1968. During that period of steam's final years, there was a marked change from the pre-grouping types that still found work at a few depots, to the modern BR designs that worked until the end in 1968. The handling of freight and passenger services was a major undertaking from town and cities, ports, coal mines and factories. All of it traversed the labyrinth of lines that criss-crossed the country. There were numerous 'sheds' spread throughout the length and breadth of the land that provided and serviced the vast army of steam locomotives (20,000 in 1948). Here is just a taste of that history.

  1. 61099 was at 64A on 11th September 1965. My notes say it had no smokebox door numberplate which was usually an indication that a locomotive had been withdrawn from service, but the information I have obtained says this B1 did not cease work for several more months. Can anyone confirm or deny 61099 ran without a numberplate ? The real mystery though is a photo which was published in 2004 purporting to show 61319 piloting 61099 at Farnley Junction on the Heaton - Red bank vans on Thursday, 9th September 1965, just two days prior to my sighting of 61099 at 64A. The second B1 cannot be identified from the photograph. Any information would be most welcome.

  2. 45469 appeared on the Heaton - Red Bank vans in March 1966, so it was not impossible for 64A locomotives to appear on that train.
