45102_1976_08_Nottingham_A3_600dpi

            Not the greatest of photographs as I have got far to close to 45102 waiting patiently to take over a Midland Main Line express under the old Great Central bridge at Nottingham, 7th August 1976. 

Throughout the 1970’s and early 1980’s the London St Pancras – Sheffield service use to alternate between Derby or Nottingham, with those via Nottingham reversing in the station and changing engine. However with the winter 1982 timetable change the London St Pancras – Sheffield services generally went over to HST’s and most of the service was routed via Derby, so the once common sight of changing engines at Nottingham virtually stopped.

Locomotive History
45102 was originally D51 and was to have been constructed at Derby works, but the order for D50 - D67 was transferred to Crewe works and D51 was delivered during 1962 to Cricklewood MPD. In 1973 the Midland Main Line services started to migrate from steam heating to electric heating of the coaching stock and 51 was one of fifty class 45 locomotives selected to have its steam heating boiler replaced with electric train heating equipment (a Brush BL100-30 ETH auxiliary alternator) and emerged from Derby Works as 45102 in May 1973. Withdrawn at the end of the summer timetable in September 1986 and broken up by Vic Berry at Leicester in October 1988.
