Savile Street Now gone

I've been inspired by these pictures from picture Sheffield and have been searching for more pictures and info about the Saville street areas. I've searched this site and can find a fair bit about the pubs but how about any info on:

The Wicker Goods Station, railway lines, sidings, tunnel etc

Firth Brown Atlas Works (east)

I know the goods station is where the vauxhall dealers stands now and I can place the goods line and where it would have come off the still-in-use line around the start of Brightside lane. I know the 2 works were on Savile st east (after the first junction) and I'm guessing they where on the north side of Savile st.

When were the Atlas works demolished? and does anyone have any more pictures?

Cheers
