LMS Route: Birmingham New Street to Nuneaton
Stockingford Station: mrs1082a
Close up of image 'mrs1082' showing Stockingford's Goods
Shed and goods sidings in the near distance on the right. Just visible is
Stockingford Ground Frame (see mrs1076) which
controlled access to the goods yard and shed. Beyond the yard are the main
sidings used to marshal wagons being used to transport coal, bricks and tiles
from the collieries and brickyards in the area. Of the three locomotives seen
in steam at least one is an ex-L&YR locomotive. Their lightweight axle
loading was required to operate the single line branch to Annesley Hall
Colliery.
