Monument Lane Shed: lnwrmlsh3070

Ex-LMS 4-6-0 5XP No 45709 'Implacable' having been coaled and watered is seen in steam standing outside Monument Lane shed. Built by Crewe works to Lot 308 in June 1936, No 45709 was to remain in service until November 1963 when it was withdrawn from 2E Saltley to be scrapped by J Cashmore of Great Bridge. The locomotive was nominally transferred to 5A Crewe North but this was a paper only transfer.
