    On this Day in History – Derby Works – 2nd February 1964

    Unclassified (ED4/5/6/7, D2508, D3122/26, 10000/01, 10201/02/03, 12005/09), class 04 (D2220), class 08 (D3018, D3573, D3800), class 11 (12031/39/82/87), class 24 (D5018/76/77/78/79/93, D5142), class 25 (5249/50/51/52/53/54/55/56), class 27 (D5402), class 44 (D1/4), class 45 (D40/41/43/44/53/54/56/61/83/84/95/96/99, D124/28/34), class 46 (D141/47/48/60/63/64/65), class 47 (D1715)

    Of note is the high number (25 out of 193 locomotives) of Peaks (classes 44/45/46) stopped for repairs, which represents around 13% of the type. At this point in time Darlington works wetre also repairing Peaks and another nine were present at Darlington for repair. This makes 36 locomotives or 19% of the type in works for repair. D1715 was brand new and in works for painting as Brush Loughborough were building class 47's faster than they could paint them and Derby works paintshop were helping out.

    On this day in History –Toton – Sunday, 15th February 1970

    On this day forty years ago despite it being the winter it was out with the push bike for a twenty mile round trip to Toton for a “bunk” round the shed. This is what was seen that day:
    class 08 (3039/58, 3345/62, 3852/59, 3996/97), class 20 (8005/06/34/38/39/44/59/60/61/71/75/76, 8112/35/40/46/48/54/68/76/94), class 25 (5226/47/67, 7604/54), class 44 (9), class 45 (13/38/41/68/83/87/94, 100/10/16), class 46 (159), class 47 (1522, 1612, 1803/12/22/23/27/31/57/62, 1961).

    Although a Sunday only fifty seven locomotives and only one class 44 seen which suggests I got “slung out” half way round. A number of the above locomotives were photographed later in their careers and can be seen in this collection.
