Pembroke Dock Engine Shed

[Pembrokelad]

The Pembroke & Tenby Railway built this shed in 1864 and was 60ft by 30ft and was accessed from the western side of the station layout.
The GWR added a further 30ft length to in the early 1930s under the 1929 Guaranteed Loans Act and this was constructed of corrugated asbestos.
I recently managed to get a photograph which I think may have been taken in the early 1960s showing a 56xx near the entrance but the shot shows that there may have been a door or entrance at the eastern end of the shed.
I certainly do not recall an entrance at the eastern end of the shed and therefore wonder if it had been an accident with an engine running through or possibly carriages running through catch points as there was a carriage siding on the same side at the eastern end.
Any ideas as to what is what pkease?

Pembrokeshirelad, it might help if you post the pic [or part of it] so we can see what you're referring to.

This is a copy of the photograph I have.
I am certain it is Pembroke Dock as the SW board, the telegraph pole both on the left hand side with the wall separating the shed from BirdcageWalk are all correct for PD!

I have had another 'good look' at the photograph. I now think it is earlier than stated as it looks as if the extension added by the GWR isn't there which would date it pre 1931. I still think that the loco on the left is a 56xx though!

I don't think it is a 56XX.

Off topic, but it looks like a 2251 to me

Looking at the photograph again, it does not appear to be a 56xx after all.
I do not know of any 2251s that were allocated to the area pre 1931.
However, looking at the Signal Records Society details for PD, there certainly was a run through on that line as shown in July 1902 (date of the sketch) so at least that part of the question is now answered.
Can anyone tell me what 2251s were allocated to west Wales from their conception with 2251 itself in March 1930?
That doesnt leave much time between a 2251 appearing at PD and the shed being extended!!

Thanks Noel,
It would appear that if it is a 2251 then it has already been turned since it is facing east.
Is it possible that the engine may have been on an excursion from say Swansea and they used a Landore based engine??
Does the GW Journal suggest that may be case if there are Landore based 2251s?
Regards and thanks for everyones help!
