Modern Day
Following the splitting up of the former BR Trainload business into three companies in 1994, the depot came under the brief control of "shadow privatisation company" Loadhaul before being amalgamated into English, Welsh & Scottish Railway. The depot code is IM and is a separate entity from Immingham Railfreight Terminal.
As of April 2009, servicing of locomotives no longer takes place at Immingham.

Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or day:
“So gladly, from the songs of modern speech
Men turn, and see the stars, and feel the free
Shrill wind beyond the close of heavy flowers,
And through the music of the languid hours,
They hear like ocean on a western beach
The surge and thunder of the Odyssey.”
—Andrew Lang (1844–1912)
“Our job is now clear. All Americans must be prepared to make, on a 24 hour schedule, every war weapon possible and the war factory line will use men and materials which will bring, the war effort to every man, woman, and child in America. All one hundred thirty million of us will be needed to answer the sunrise stealth of the Sabbath Day Assassins.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
