Rugby's importance as a junction station combined with being almost equidistant between Euston and Crewe meant that for nearly one hundred years Rugby Shed was strategically important, first to the LNWR and then to its successors, the LMS and the British Railways Board. Hawkin's & Reeve's state in their book 'LMS Engine Sheds: Volume One - The L&NWR' that 'at various times Rugby was an engine changing point for a variety of services, particularly the Liverpool and Manchester to London expresses in the 1870s. Being an important and complex junction it 'was an obvious site to locate an engine shed and servicing facilities' something recognised as early as 1847. McConnell, Superintendent of the LNWR's Southern Division formerly the London to Birmingham line, reported in 1850 'that additional shelter for engines is much required at Rugby, there being twenty-two engines in steam daily and shed room for only ten'. His solution to the immediate problem was a shed 'like the one to be erected at Bletchley which may be removed at little expense'.

Hawkins & Reeves state that this shed was erected the following year and by 1853 two sheds were in use, one for the Northern Division and the other for Southern Division locomotives. Within thirteen years the numbers of locomotives had increased to one hundred, thirty-four passenger types, fifty-four goods engines, five bankers for passenger services, five goods engine shunters and two 'ballast engines'. In 1909 there were no less than one hundred and sixty locomotives with twenty-six being the newest 'Precursor' type express engines. The abandonment of engine changing on many express services by the 1930s had resulted in Rugby's allocation of locomotives becoming more focused on servicing goods traffic for the area's industrial and mining communities. However as 'Hawkins & Reeves' state 'its position on a critical junction ensured it remained one of the primary depots of the LMS, and it received a large share of Stanier locos when they were built. In 1954 Rugby's allocation included some forty 'Black Fives', ten 8Fs with the remaining ninety odd locomotives comprising ten 0-8-0s, nine 2-6-4T's, 'a motley collection of ex-MR and 4F 0-6-0s, 3F tanks and 4P 4-4-0s not forgetting No 46604 one of two surviving Webb 2-4-2Ts.

The LMS and its successor, British Railways, undertook to film various aspects of operating steam locomotives and other railway operations. We have provided below links to some of the films related to shed operation that we know exist. Films on other aspects of railway operations can be viewed via our Video and Film Clip section.

	"Wash and Brush Up" 1953 Shows the procedures that a steam engine goes through as part of its regular maintenance cycle. The locomotive being featured in the film is a British Railways Standard Class 5MT 4-6-0 No 73020 at 6D Chester (Midland shed. (25 minutes 19 seconds)
