Shedplate 61B Aberdeen Ferryhill 1948-February 1967. This joint shed used by the CR and NBR was perhaps most famously remembered for its 1960s allocation of 14 A4s performing their main line swan song on the Glasgow expresses. The final 2 A2s also worked from this depot. It had 40 locos allocated in 1950, dwindling to just 5 in its final few months after all the Pacifics had gone. In lightly face cleaned condition.
