Withdrawn 45137 waits its fate at March depot on 16 August 1988. Delivered new to Cricklewood depot in 1962 as D56, it received the name The Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Regiment (T.A.) shortly afterwards. The position of the nameplate can be clearly seen on the bodyside. The loco was withdrawn in June 1987, at a time when the last remaining Peaks were quickly being removed from service. It became progressively more derelict whilst in store at March, until eventually being moved by road to M.C. Metals at Glasgow, where it was cut up in March 1994. |
