Crewe Works: one of the ancient ex-London & North Western works shunters
This ex-LNW 2F 'Special' 0-6-0 saddle-tank had been so long on the Chief Mechanical Engineer's stock of Works shunters that it retained its LNW No. 3323 and kept it until condemned in 1954.

Ex-London & North Western 0-6-0 Saddle-tank at Crewe Works
Although lined up with other condemned engines, No. 27480, which was converted from a tender engine, was still working as a Crewe Works shunter and not withdrawn until the end of 1948. (Passing beside it are two of my fellow-visitors to the Works on that memorable day).

Crewe Works, Crewe
Class 90050 and Class 91020 stand in the works on Crewe Open Day.
I'm not quite sure of the correct title for the works, nor its correct grid reference, but I don't think I'm far off with the latter.
