LPPC DSL BW 0881 In largely original condition a Peak Class 46 D165 (later 46028) negotiates the tight trackwork of Gloucester Horton Road depot – 85B. Behind it is an ex-GW Fruit D long-wheelbase van in use for the movement of locomotive spare parts between works and depots. The city enjoyed two motive power depots in steam days, the other being Barnwood, which was used by the MR locomotives in the area, both for main-line traffic and the extensive dock lines and sidings.
