English: Woodford Halse Locomotive Yard, 1953 View NE towards the Shed, with locomotives resting on a Sunday from their normal work at or from the major Woodford Marshalling Yards. These were here on the ex-GCR main line where it threw off its important connection with the ex-GWR system via Banbury. The locomotive on the left, engaged in shunting dead engines, is No. 64388, an ex-GC Robinson class 9J (LNER J11) 0-6-0, built 5/1905 as No. 1080, became LNER No. 61080, then No. 4388 in 1946 and lasted as BR No. 64388 until 1/59. Woodford Depot was closed in June 1965, not long before the whole valuable main line was closed down in September 1966 - 'after Beeching'.
