LOCO SHEDS

Maintenance time

By Richard Beckett

This was the "Loco Shed" situated between Newhaven Town Station  and the Marine Workshops (the large building on the quayside where ships engines were overhauled & repaired). The Loco Shed was where the locos were cleaned & replenished with Coal & Water and they could also be positioned on the turntable for turning so that they would be facing the right way round for hauling the trains.
