Is there anywhere on the web , or in print , listings of what Locomotives were allocated to what Shed in say the time period 1964 to 1968 ?

Hi Andy, welcome to the forum.

This looks like it might help: http://www.brdatabase.info/index.php

From the menu on the left, select sites, then depots and this then gives an alphabetical list of BR depots. Click on the depot, select the locos allocated tab at the top of the depot details & this gives a list of all locos allocated from 1948 (or depot opening if later than 1948).

Hope this is useful.

What an amazing resource, thanks for posting this. I've been having a quick browse and I never realised that Colwick had an allocation of 25s (albeit only for a few months). Doubly surprising when you consider that my Granddad was the Shed Foreman.

Interesting BR web site.
I must delve into it when I am next at the library.
