A new Script error: No such module "convert". x Script error: No such module "convert". diesel shed was built in 1966 south east of the steam shed, which was converted to wagon repair.Script error: No such module "Footnotes".Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".

Steam locomotive types deployed include LNER Thompson Class B1, LMS Stanier Class 8F, and BR standard class 9F.[7]

The last steam locomotive worked from the shed was No.61058 (LNER B1) on 7 February 1966, which hauled a train of empty wagons to Markham Colliery.[8]

Following the splitting up of the former BR Trainload business into three companies in 1994, the depot came briefly under the control of "shadow privatisation company" Loadhaul.[9] Loadhaul was acquired and merged into English Welsh & Scottish in 1995.

The TOPS depot code for the EWS/DB Schenker depot at Immingham is IM, and for the Freightliner Traction Maintenance Depot at Immingham, IN.[10][11]

As a result of centralisation of maintenance activities by EWS to Toton TMD the shed was used only for storage of out of service locomotives.[5]
