Chester (Midland) MPD

BR Standard 2-6-2T no 84000 stands on Chester (Midland) shed (6A) in the late fifties. The locomotive would have worked in from its then home shed at Birkenhead (Mollington Street). 84000 was eventually withdrawn from Croes Newydd, Wrexham, in October 1965 and cut up at Buttigeigs, Newport, some 4 months later. Chester Northgate shed closed at the beginning of 1960. The site now houses an ambulance station.
