Report Date Title Report Source
31/10/1962 LNER Classes extinct This months withdrawals result in the following classes becoming extinct (except for any locos. preserved) : -J15, J17, J19, J20, J69, N2, N7, this additionally means that there are now no longer any ex-G.E. locos left on capital stock. Following the above transfers and withdrawals there are now no steam locos operating at all in the G.E. area of British Railways apart from those left at March for working out of the area. In view of this it seems probable that the transfer of 68009/18 to Stratford recently reported was not correct and that these two locos should have been shown as withdrawn; however, confirmation and dates are still awaited from Eastern Region before an official correction can be made.
