The west end of Accrington carriage shed, with 51684/51709 nearest the
camera, along with 2 113's, and probably 4 other 112's. Beleived to be circa
1962, as the stationary steam loco that was used to heat carriages, and was
kept in front of the building with the chimney, has gone, and all the vans
are believed to be stored.
Accrington shed closed to steam on 5th March 1961. It became 10E in 1963,
and closed on 2nd October 1972. The depot was used for storage after this
date, and was apparently demolished cira 1974-75.
