Tyselet Depot's allocation

[18B]

Hi,

 

would anyone know the current allocation of TYseley depot? and whether it ahd any 08s.?

 

Old maps.co.uk usually has some good maps but oddly the ones for the depot are either the smaller scale ones or don't show the parts of the depot.

 

 

would anyone happen to have a map of the depot at all?

Tyseley still has an 08, used for hauling rubbish around the site on a converted well wagon with slips attached to it, can’t remember the number as it has its original ‘D’ number on a brass plate, it’s finished in London Midland livery

 

Allocation wise I think it has a few 150’s and 153s, LM 170s and the whole 172 fleet

Tyseley also does the maintenance for Cross-Country's 170s (under contract) so you'll find some of them around too.

08754 is a RMS Locotec hire loco, it visited Tyseley for around a week for tyre turning in September 2012 but that's it. It's currently at Dereham on the Mid Norfolk Railway following the end of its hire at Norwich.
