Nick Catford comments about the photo: The line in the foreground is the east to south spur connection from the Garston to Warrington line. The next two tracks are the Widnes to St. Helens Main line, the original St Helens and Runcorn Gap Railway and behind them are factory sidings on which the locomotive is standing as it takes on water. The site of Runcorn Gap Station is just out of view to left of the picture.
