Most depots have had an open day at one time or another - searching on Flickr brings up plenty of images from steam to modern day.

At Old Oak Common, the shift pattern for the maintenance crew was as follows;

Monday - Friday 06.00 - 14.00 earlies, 14.00 - 22.00 lates and 22.00 - 06.30 nights.

By the mid 80s the 39 hour week meant that half the shift finished an hour early on Thursday, the other half on Friday.

The weekend was a bit different;

Saturday early was a quarter of the staff 06.00 - 14.00 off the Friday late shift, with lates being another quarter of the staff off the Friday late shift 14.00 - 20.30, and nights a quarter of the staff off the Friday night shift 20.30 - 06.00.

Sunday earlies was half of the staff off the Friday late shift 06.00 - 14.00, with lates being a quarter of the staff off the Friday night shift 14.00 - 21.00, and nights three quarters of the staff off the Friday early shift 21.00 - 06.30.

That should equate to a six-day working roster, which repeats every 12 weeks if I've remembered it correctly.

This provided 24/7 cover for the servicing shed, with The Factory well manned from Sunday night through to Saturday morning.

Saturday lates was an odd shift, being short, but paid at time plus seven twelfths.....

Thank you for your help and correct answer by what I am look that

Hi Andrew, Mike may correct me here, but I understand that tasks preparing locos for their next duty, including fuel-point exams, safety-checks and basic servicing, would all be carried out around the shift patterns, as locos arrived due their next inspection and servicing.

Thank you

Basically 'almost yes' as you describe but sectorisation was fully in place from 1992 so depots were officially allocated to a sector by then and would only normally deal with work for that sector but could undertake jobs for other sectors.  In some cases sectorisation of work had been carried out earlier mainly because particulatr depots only dealt with certain types of locos or traffic.  For example Margam depot on the Western Region was always a freight loco depot because of where it was although it dealt with Class 47s and that meant it also dealt with engineer's locos.  On the other hand we 'sectorised' Reading depot in about 1990 and it only dealt with DMUs as local use of 08 diesel shunters had finished by then and in 1992 it went over to full NSE ownership.

 

Normal shift hours were 06.00 - 14,00 known as 'Early' or 'Days';  14.00 - 22,00 known as 'Late' or 'Afternoons'; and 22.00 -06.00 which was nights.  the sort of work doe ne on each shift varied from depot to depot according to traffic patterns.

 

Does that help answer your question?

Yes
