Sun 07/06/1959 D6114 30A   On Stratford shed - Fresh all over green The Early Years of London Diesels  
Tue 27/03/1962 D6127 65A   While working the 15:15 Buchanan Street - Dundee service (in tandem with another NBL Type 1), D6127 caught fire - the intensity was such that the locomotive's bodywork was burnt right through. The loco went in to store at various locations around Scotland over the next 5 years before being finally condemned at the end of 1967 - a working life of less than 2½ years. http://www.derbysulzers.com/62.html
