Canklow engine shed

Canklow Engine Shed was a traction maintenance depot located in Canklow, Rotherham, England. The depot opened in 1900 and was situated on the Midland Main Line, 1.5 miles (2.4 km) south of Rotherham Masborough station. The depot area had six lines; three of these fed into just one line that went through the shed, whilst the other three were sidings, one of which had the coal stage. The shed closed in 1965 following the opening of Tinsley Diesel Depot and was later demolished with a housing estate erected on the site in 1990.
