Many years ago, Wellingborough had a 2 road shed for stabling and refuelling locos. Now, when there were trains starting from the sidings nearby, this made sense, but I'm sure it was used into the 80's, well after the iron ore trains had finished. From what I understand, nothing loco hauled started or finished at Wellingborough, so what purpose would a stabling point like this have had in its latter years?
As an aside, does anyone know when (if) they pulled it down, because I remember walking round it about 10 years ago. I know that the building of the old roundhouse is still there, but that's next to where the depot was.
Cheers in advance
