            09021 stands between duties in one of the short bay non passenger platforms at Waterloo in the days when there was sufficient loco hauled passenger trains and parcel/newspaper traffic to warrant a station pilot, 23rd October 1976. 

Locomotive History
09021 was built at Horwich works as D4109 and though very similar to a class 08 shunting locomotive, the class 09 are re-geared to give a maximum top speed of 27.5 mph (44 km/h) at the expense of a lower tractive effort. Entering traffic in November 1961 it was originally allocated to Stoke MPD and transferred to Crewe in April 1966, initially to Crewe South and later to Crewe Diesel Depot when Crewe South closed. In 1968 it was decided to concentrate the higher speed locomotives on the Southern Region where there higher speed would be useful in working between the intensive passenger service and D4109 transferred to Selhurst in December 1968. This was followed by a long period allocated to the Southern although its final years were spent at Allerton before withdrawal in February 2004. It was broken up by CF Booth, Rotherham in July 2008.
