ALLOCATED TO; Norwich Thorpe MPD
Distance from Home Depot; 20 miles
Location; On the west side of Yarmouth Vauxhall Station
The locomotive was stationed on a siding in the Goods Yard, located at TG51940810
The B1 was only employed for the early London trains and the rolling stock to be heated was drawn from the station by the pilot [usually a Norwich Thorpe-allocated Class 03], shunted into the yard and connected to the B1
Servicing Arrangements; Yarmouth Vauxhall MPD had closed on January 5th, 1959 and by the time that the B1s were used here no steam loco facilities remained. The loco received water by means of a hose from the station and it was hand coaled from a coal wagon. It then returned to the depot under its own steam every weekend
