Kipps Locomotive Depot, near Airdrie
View westward, towards Coatbridge (Sunnyside) beside the Monklands lines to Slamannan and Causewayend etc. - which lost passenger services in 5/30, just east of the junction with ex-NB Glasgow - Coatbridge - Airdrie line, i.e. the eastern end of the present North Clydeside suburban system, soon to be extended to Bathgate. Kipps Depot (BR code 65E) provided some motive power for the suburban services but mainly locomotives for the various mineral lines of the area (including one or two cut down to fit under a very low bridge at Gartverrie). In 1954, the allocation was 49 locomotives (21 0-6-0s, 5 2-6-2Ts, 1 4-4-2T, 7 0-6-2Ts, 8 0-6-0Ts and 6 0-4-0Ts, also one ex-LMS (Caledonian) 0-6-0 Dock Tank). The allocation had fallen to 32 steam plus two Diesel shunters in 1961. (In this photograph, two of the J36 0-6-0s (Nos. 65241 and 65260) are visible by the coaler). The Depot closed to steam on 31/12/62, but continued to house Diesel locomotives until 6/11/67.
