I Know jubilees with the odd scot/pat would have past thought Leicester but would not have gone on to the MPD. so was trying to open up the stud well still being realistic. would things like Garratts and Supper D from Wellingborough have stay at Leicester or would they Always have work Back to they Home shed.
take a Garratt working a London empty coal train to Leicester coal fields would she then just have gone to Leicester MPD to return the next day to pick a full train up, or have gone the exter 15/20 miels to the home shed of Wellingborough
OR should I Fall back to the old Line and just say it's may layout.

Sorry for not spotting your post earlier. If you went on a "shed bash" in steam days, at almost every depot you would find a few locos belonging to other sheds, so almost anything is possible - provided a loco was not too big / heavy to enter the shed yard. Moreover, overnight "lodging turns" were much more common for steam crews (with or without their locos.) in that era.
