Springs Branch Shed

A mixture of motive power at Springs Branch shed in October 1980. On the left is Brush Type 4 47042, later 47676 and withdrawn in October 1994. Peak 45005, the former D79, is seen moving onto the back road See image 21616 and after a further six years service was withdrawn in September 1986. Behind the Peak is Class 25 25074, which according to End of the Line had been withdrawn the previous month. The Type 2 is coupled to Class 08 shunter 08273 which was later withdrawn from Allerton in December 1982. All four locos have since been cut up. On my first visit to this shed, around 1970, an operational 03 (now preserved D2199) was working there.
