Euston 40’s up to electrification in Nov 65 .
Below is a list of well over 120 different 40’s that were recorded at Euston on passenger services up to final electrification in Nov 65. During November 65 with the wires going live 40’s at Euston went from common to pretty rare overnight and they were to remain rare until 40122 left Euston on the Pennine 40 tour on March 1988, the last recorded visit of the class until the 2000’s. The gaps are primarily Eastern or Scottish based 40’s which rarely strayed away from their home Region. The absence of D200-209 is interesting as up until 1966 these fine machines primarily worked out of nearby Liverpool St on Norwich services.
Some post Nov 65 Euston 40’s are included a few failures and railtours but these fine machines will be best remembere dfor pre electrification Euston when they literally ruled the roost!.
