Junction on A49
This is the junction on the A49 with Longford Street and Kerfoot Street. On three of the corners we have McDonald's, Matalan and Caledonia Motors. The Manchester-Liverpool (Cheshire Lines) avoiding line used to cross Winwick Road here on a skew bridge next to the Jockey Inn (where McDonald's is). Jockey Street is still there just north of the junction, and Kerfoot Street is named after a landlord of the Inn. (additional info provided by Steve Parish)

Warrington (Dallam) Locomotive Depot
View southward, the BR (LMR) West Coast Main Line, north of Bank Quay station being to the left. This Depot mainly dealt with motive power for the busy local and main-line freight traffic in the area. It was in the Liverpool District of the LMS and BR (LMR), coded 8B. The allocation would have been somewhat less but of similar composition in 1965 than in 1954, when it was 55, comprising:- 10 4-6-0s, 8 2-8-0s, 5 0-8-0s, 12 0-6-0s, 2 2-6-4Ts, 5 2-6-2Ts, 3 2-4-2Ts and 10 0-6-0Ts. Prominent in the photograph are LMS Class 4F 0-6-0 No. 44522 and Standard Class 9F 2-10-0 No. 92055. The Depot was late to be closed - 2/10/67.
