Oxley, Wolverhampton, June 1967
The former GWR locomotive depot at Oxley had closed as a running shed in early March 1967 but continued receiving engines for boiler washouts for a few months after. BR Standard Class 4 75033 from Carnforth is present for that purpose on 18th June 1967. Condemned locomotives, Stanier 8F 48180 and Ivatt Class 2 46446 await disposal while a VW Campervan provides an interesting counterpoint.
