BRITISH RAILWAY LOCOMOTIVE DEPOTS, WORKS AND STABLING POINTS.

Photographs in this gallery are of locomotive depots, both steam and diesel, locomotive works, stabling points and withdrawn locomotives but not those being scrapped. Some of these pictures were taken by me, some passed on by friends and others have been bought and are part of my collection.

TOTON TRACTION MAINTENANCE DEPOT (18A/16A/TO) - The Midland Railway opened a depot at Toton in 1870 to house engines to serve the local coalfields. This eventually expanded to three brick-built roundhouses and enormous associated marshalling yards. In March 1959, the allocation was 98 engines, nearly all goods engines, including 55 Class 8F 2-8-0's, and shunting tanks. It closed to steam in December 1965 and was replaced a purpose-built diesel depot with a large allocation of engines from Class 20, 25, 45 and 47. However, by the 1970's the yard was in decline. With the introduction of Merry-go-round trains direct from colliery to power station, and the decline in the use of domestic coal in favour of North Sea gas, rail traffic through the yards was diminishing quickly. The Down Side ceased hump shunting in 1978, followed by the Up Side in 1984. Many of the yards were lifted during the 1970's and 1980's, and in the late 1980's the yards were rationalised to the basic shape seen today. Since the privatisation of the UK rail network, Toton TMD has been operated by DB Cargo UK. As at 2021, it is home to the Class 60 and Class 66 diesel locomotives. Changes in the maintenance of locomotives have also meant that Toton is now the only TMD within DB Cargo UK where heavy maintenance is carried out on locomotives. Toton lost the last of its domestic coal traffic in the mid-2000's and now handles mainly imported coal. Much the the spare space at the depot and in the yards is occupied by stored locos and has been for a number of years. Currently, it is occupied mainly by Class 60 (about 60% of those built) and Class 66, of which a surprisingly high number seem to be out of traffic at any one time. Seen here is a comtemporary view of the depot looking south-east. Most of the activity is centred on the northern end of the depot these days. Note the GBRF Class 60 and the Royal Train coach.

  • TRAFFORD PARK LOCOMOTIVE DEPOT (9E/17F) - The locoshed here was built under the Cheshire Lines Bill of 1893, was opened in March 1895 and closed in March 1968. Each of the CLC constituent companies (Great Northern Railway, Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway and Midland Railway) had their own shed offices. It was built with 20 dead end roads, though later reduced. In 1960 the shed master said he employed about 350 staff, including 120 drivers, and used about 600 tons of coal a week from a hand-operated stage on the north side of the shed. In addition to the allocated steam fleet, he said he usually had 3 diesels stabled, plus any which had failed. It mainly provided engines for passenger trains to London, Liverpool, Chester, Sheffield and Buxton. In April 1960 it had 50 locos allocated, to whit :- LMS Stanier 2-6-2T 40009, 40018, 40088, 40141, 40208, LMS Fairburn 2-6-4T 42050, 42064, 42065, 42111, 42675, 42676, 42683, LMS Fowler 2-6-4T 42300, 42328, 42333, 42339, 42361, 42419, LMS 2-Cylindered Stanier 2-6-4T 42428, 42452, 42466, 42469, 42479, 42560, 42628, Midland Railway Johnson 0-6-0 43211, 43580, 43650, LMS Fowler Class 4F 44138, 44402, 44564-6, LMS Stanier Class 5 4-6-0 (Black 5) 44665, 44717, 44809, 45239, LMS Stanier Class 8F 48273, 48288, 48741, BR Standard Class 7 (Britannia) 70014, 15,17, 21, 32, 33, 42, BR Standard Class 4 2-6-0 76086, 88, 89. It closed with the end of steam on 4 March 1968. It is seen here in 1934, looking rather empty, with 2 ex-MR Compound 4-4-0's in residence.

  • TUNBRIDGE WELLS WEST LOCOMOTIVE DEPOT (75F) - This depot was opened by the LBSCR in 1890 as a sub-shed of Brighton and consisted of a 4-road brick-built dead-end shed on the north side of the station. The allocation in May 1959 was of 22 engines, all of them tank engines and 12 of them being BR/LMS 2-6-4T's, like 80010 on the right and the two sister locos on the left. The shed closed in September 1963.
