Aintree Shed
Aspinall ex-L&Y 0-6-0T no 51537 stands on Aintree shed in September 1958. One of several dock tanks based here, these locomotive would have spent most of their lives shunting Liverpool Docks. [Editor's note: What is often referred to as a spark-arresting device is, according to Paul Ford, a 'blast deflector' fitted to locomotives shunting the dock estate to protect the deck of the Liverpool Overhead Railway].
