Gallery 45 131 - 45 140

  1977. Mike Kerry says " Another lovely picture of dear old 45132 this time with four numbers, the additional ones added at Toton. Notice the plates over the damaged side grills where fitters have levered the louvres apart to get a light on an extension lead inside when the loco batteries were too tired to power the 110 volt inspection lights that plug in inside. St.Pancras October 11th 1977. 132 has just backed on to the train as the tail light on the platform suggests." John Goodale also notes that the nearside domino appears to be on clear glass, hence the reflections in it.

1967. This black and white image at Derby on 26/08/1967 captures D56 whilst carrying the blue livery applied at Toton in 1966. Note the lack of BR emblems of either variety, the giveaway that the loco is carrying this livery. Also of note is the plated boiler grille.
