31/07/1948 Darlington Works 'L.1's' are completed up to No. 67727 and the last three are almost finished. The paint dates of Nos. 67719-21 are May, Nos. 67722-26 June and No. 67727 July. The Works' Nos. are 2037-2045, in order.
Frames are laid down for the first two 'Pacifics' and it is understood that at least twelve are expected to be completed by the end of the year.
No. 7306 the first 'G.5' to be withdrawn is in the scrap yard, together with No. 5115. A start was made on cutting-up 'C.7's' Nos. 2973 an 2982 during W/E 3/7/48 and these will be followed by No. 2954. Further engines of this class have arrived in the Works' road at the shed, and it is expected they will all be scrapped, they are as follows:-Nos. 2975, 2981, 2983, 2988 an 2995. 'J.93' No. 8488 arrived on a truck and was cut-up W/E 29/5/48. Easingwold Rly. No. 2 is still in the Works' yard in a very forlorn condition. The North Sunderland Rly. diesel Lady Armstrong has also been there for a considerable time; No. 8089 is at present working on the N.S. Rly. The frames of two ex G.N.R. 'Atlantic's' (still complete with cylinders) have been shortened and are being used back to back as a boiler wagon. 'B.1' No. 61014 is ex works painted black and fully lined, but minus name plates-the name being chalked on one side of the smokebox. Other locomotives noted painted black and fully lined include Nos. 60834, 60942, 61019 an 62751.
Locomotives ex works to July 3rd, include:-Nos. 60919, 61410, 62724, 63282/90, 63345, 65024/64, 65575, 65673, 65708/54/62/75, 65816/41, 67613/29, 68245, 68307/58/91, 68706/61, 69771/98, 69833/37, 69854/66 an 69917. Locomotives for works during the same period include:-Nos. 509, 824/98, 920, 1012/19, 2375/79, 2706/61/68, 3250/64, 5099, 5670/92, 5774, 7246/95, 7305/06, 7603/05/10/16/30/35/61/78/90, 8262/91, 8358/60/93, 8434, 9781/82, 9832/52/57/82/85/93 an 61420.

03/06/1961 North Eastern Region Locomotion and Derwent have now been returned to their pedestals at Darlington station after renovation at North Road Works. The boiler lagging of Locomotion and the woodwork of its tender have been treated with clear varnish to show the natural colour of the wood, whilst the iron-work has been painted black. In the case of Derwent, the boiler lagging and the two tenders have been painted green; the shade is not unlike the BR Brunswick green but is rather more blue. Polished iron-work (big ends etc), brass and copper add much to the present splendid appearance of these two famous veterans.
The pioneer electric locomotive of the N.E.R. has also received a general overhaul at South Gosforth and is now resplendent in NER green, lined out with black and white. The BR emblem and the number (e26500) are displayed on the left-hand side of the cab door and the NER coat of Arms on the right. The lining has been somewhat simplified from that used in 1904 but the original square-cornered panelling has been reproduced. It is understood that 26501 is to receive a similar overhaul and repaint which seems to indicate that these two locomotives will remain at work for a good many more years.
The last ex-LNE Class T1 4-8-0T was on the Works road at Bank Top shed on 11th June. The frames of J21 65099, which is scheduled for preser-vation, are still standing in the yard at North Road.
