Another engine shed shot, which logic suggests should be Holbeck, but that coaling plant (or is it an ash plant) isn't familiar and I don't recognise the large industrial buildings in the background.
Any thoughts?

"I'm pretty sure of this one as Carlisle Kingmoor. The ash plant is shown in West Coast Border Steam although from a lot further back but those houses are similar too and the telegraph poles also. As for date, pre march 1967 as Kolhaphur was running with a home made and mispelt nameplate at that time. Not sure if it kept it to withdrawal though."
Can anyone else add to this please?
John.
Kolhaphur was running with a home made
The LMS should have named 5593 John or Fred or something, in line with Keith, Vernon and Rodney. There was a misspelt nameplate, but the above isn't right either: only one 'H', between the 'L' and the 'A'.
Sorry don't know where the pic is, but Kingmoor would have been very likely for 65-66, which it probably is, what with the missing nameplate and the flash.
I don't remember industrial buildings like those in the background at Kingmoor.

According to my records, 45593 is listed as:
"Jubilee" Class, 4-6-0 6P5F or 7P - named "Kolhapur".
