The first engine shed was established to the north end of the station opposite Tucker's Maltings. A workshop for the locomotive contractors was also established opposite the station and this was expanded over the years to include facilities for maintaining the railway's carriages and wagons. An old 0-4-0 locomotive, "Tiny", was installed in the workshops to power the machinery. When it was no longer required for this role it was restored and put on display on the station platform. It has since been moved to the railway museum at and is the only original British broad gauge locomotive that survives.
