Mirfield 1938 - 1966


A Leeds to Manchester stopping train passes Mirfield shed, headed by Stanier ‘Jubilee’ 4-6-0 45704 Leviathan.  On the left side of the shed is one of Fowler’s 0-8-0s which worked much of the intensive coal traffic until replaced by scores of WD 2-8-0s.

    I went on a shed visit to Mirfield in the early 1960’s with the Lancaster Railway Circle. Were any. Of the log dates related to the LRC visit?

    Wonderful blog but...46113 is Cameronian not Welsh Guardsman (46117) (see 8 April 1962). Both were ex-Holbeck so could have been either.

    I lived at Mirfield anad cousin had bungalow behind the shed where the turntable was andthe big snowplough was stored.
    I seem to remember 44474 as being 19th century but listings say 1925?

    I went to Hopton Infant and Junior schools in the late 40s, which overlooked the line just to the east of the shed. There was a service road which passed the front of the school along which I cycled in my teens to trainspotting at 25D. The locos were always run of the mill goods and mixed traffic. Never anything exciting. It was relatively easy to shed with little or no security. Happy grimy days!

      Occasional doubleheader or streak.
      I remember seeing Bihar and Orrissa double heading through.
