This is the old goods yard operated by the LNWR at Wednesbury. I have a 1975 picture of this yard in Ned Williams's book "Railways of the Black Country" which shows these two little diesel locos parked up in exactly the same place! After the yard closed to railway freight traffic, it was operated as a scrap yard by R A Giblin; this picture shows the site just before it was cleared.
