The engine shed was built by the Humber Commercial Dock and Railway company in the southeastern corner of the Immingham Dock estate. As initially builtШаблон:Sfn the engine shed had twelve "roads" (tracks)Шаблон:Sfn providing facilities for 60 locomotives.Шаблон:Sfn

The railways at Immingham were worked by the Great Central Railway, the developer of the Port.Шаблон:Sfn In 1923 it was taken over by the LNER and then became part of the Eastern Region of British Railways in 1948.

During the LNER period (1930s) a concrete automatic coaling stage was added to the facilities.[4]Шаблон:Sfn

During the British Railways period the facility had a shed code of 40B[5] and had two sub-sheds: New HollandШаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn and Grimsby.

At its peak the shed had an allotment of over 120 locomotives,Шаблон:Sfn with 12 stabling roadsШаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn – part of the building was demolished in the 1950s and a diesel depot constructed.[5]Шаблон:Sfn

Soon after opening a dormitory block was built near the turntable for use by visiting crews on lodging turns.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn

A new Шаблон:Convert x Шаблон:Convert diesel shed was built in 1966 south east of the steam shed, which was converted to wagon repair.Шаблон:Sfn In 1966 it had 90 diesels, plus 35 shunters.[6]

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]
