By this date the remaining Class 45 locomotives were approaching the end of their careers. 45034 was built by BR at Derby Works in August 1961 as D42. It was withdrawn only 3 months after this photograph was taken. it then got a short extension to its working life as it was soon reinstated for departmental use. This did not last long as it was again withdrawn in July 1988. It was cut up by MC Metals, Glasgow in May 1992.
