All Our Yesterdays – 50 Years Ago – March 1968

With first generation diesel locomotive building virtually complete this month would see seven Class 50 locomotives delivered.

New Locomotives
Class 50 – D406/07/08/09/11/12/13

The next ten years or so will be dominated by a mix of locomotive modifications and the withdrawal of the more un-successful or “non standard” types. The main programme of modification this month was Doncaster Works undertaking replacement of the unreliable Mirrlees JVS12T 1250bhp engine in the Brush Type 2 fleet with a 1470bhp English Electric 12SVT engine.

D5538/63/64/65, D5621/41/52

Steam withdrawals in the month increased from twenty to sixty three. With the dwindling steam fleet being made up of Stanier Black Fives, Stanier 8F’s and BR Standards these types would now form the basis of the monthly withdrawals with the Stanier 8F’s being hit hard this month with thirty three condemned.. The slaughter of the small or non-standard diesel shunter fleet slowed again with only seven locomotives condemned. However the pause in the non standard or unreliable main line diesel fleet condemnations ended with three Class 14, one Class 15 and two Class 22 locomotives condemned. The three Class 14 locomotives had been in service for less than four years.

Nice selection of shots there, I particularly like the InterCity 125 power car shots, but who wouldn't?
