GWR Route: Banbury to Wolverhampton
GWR Route: North Warwickshire Line
Tyseley Shed: gwrt1085
Panoramic view of the twelve roads that constituted
Tyseley's repair workshops with eight locomotives representing seven classes on
show circa 1910. Tyseley's repair workshop was part of the GWR's strategy to
regionalise some of the maintenance work that could not be carried out the
sheds. This saved valuable time both in avoiding moving locomotives to Swindon
works as well as reducing the pressure on Swindon's facility. Tyseley repair
workshop was of a similar size to that found at Old Oak Common in London.
