Thomson L1 tanks at Stratford (30A)

Post by steam.tram »

Having worked on Thomson L1 tanks (one class amongst many others) I am interested in finding out exactly which members of the class were allocated to Stratford (30A) shed. I would appreciate any information about where I might find this data.

21 L1's at Stratford, as at 11/06/55.
67701/12/18/20 to 37...
67713/38 were, rather strangely, both allocated to 30C Bishops Stortford.
Cheers

Hi Robt P. Many thanks. You are obviously well informed. Your reply was just what I wanted. Perhaps you can assist in taking this a step further. How and/or where can I obtain a full allocation list of all classes and members of classes shedded at Stratford between 1957 and 1965.

There is also "The Xpress (sic) Locomotive Register" Volume 3 which covers the allocation, movement and withdrawal of all 6XXXX locos from August 1950 to November 1960. It includes LMS and Standard locos allocated to "LNER" sheds and mainline diesels, but not diesel shunters.
