45101_1978_05_Leicester_A3_800dpi

            As a 35mm Kodak Ektachrome 200 colour transparency this into the sun shot did not have a lot going for it. However with a bit of work and conversion to black and white an acceptable image of 45101 waiting to depart Leicester with a northbound express has been achieved, 20th May 1978.

Locomotive History
45101 was originally D96 and was built at Crewe Works, entering traffic in April 1961, allocated to Derby MPD. It remained a Midland engine for all of its career predominantly allocated to Toton. In 1973 the Midland Main Line services started to migrate from steam heating to electric heating of the coaching stock and D96 was the first of fifty class 45 locomotives selected to have its Stone Vapour steam heating boiler replaced with electric train heating equipment (a Brush BL100-30 ETH auxiliary alternator) and emerged from Derby Works in March 1973 as 45101. It was withdrawn still allocated to Toton in November 1986 and dumped in the yard until moved to Vic Berry, Leicester and broken up during September 1988.
