31/01/1949 Crewe Works Locomotives entering Works during January included Nos. C.D. No. 7, 2236, 2428/46/53/74, 2562/79/80/98, 2624/74/85/86, 4777, 4812/23/68/76, 4965, 5103/6/29/49, 5200/22/84/94, 5317/18/53/54/72/75/83, 5427/49, 5516/24/94/98, 5650/65/84, 5719, 6111/18/22/28/45/46/64, 6204/50, 7181, 7937/51/73/81/85, 8007/80/93/96, 8177/99, 8220/5, 8327/38/45/47, 8417/24/35/42, 8501/2, 8607/28/49, 8705/23/70, 8892/4, 8909/35, 9217/27/90, 9386, 25673, 27591, 27635, 28337, 42150, 42225, 42458, 42589, 42619, 44753/66, 44822/70, 45027/76, 45513/30/65/72/89, 45618/60/85, 45721, 46220/21/29/39, 46603, 48004, 48114, 49307. During the past month new construction accounted for a further six Class '5' 4-6-0's of Order E472. They were completed as follows:- Nos. 44729 (7/1), 44730 (12/1), 44731 (17/1), 44732 (24/1), 44733 (28/1) and 44734 (3/2); the last three engines of this order are already in an advanced state of completion. The latest 'Patriot' Class 4-6-0 to be rebuilt is No. 45522-completed on 21/1; at the present time no more are in hand.
Since the cessation of hostilities the former L.M.S.Rly. have fitted several different types of speedometer to certain of their 4-6-0 locomotives. These experiments were carried a stage further last month when during W.E. 22/1 Class '7P' No. 46257 was fitted with a Smiths type speedometer driven from the pony truck axle, the generator being mounted on the left-hand axlebox.
Ex L.N.W. 'Cauliflower' 0-6-0's. Nos. 58409/12 were fitted for snowplough duties during the same week. The equipment includes ex-tended cab roofs, and look-out windows (similar to those seen on many brake vans) mounted on the cab sides.
Since October last, several 'Dean' 0-6-0 pannier tanks have undergone heavy repairs here; those having passed through Works to date include Nos. 2021/67, 2100/09/11/15/27/50/84/85. All have had their numberplates painted red, with the numerals scoured bright. Another ex L. & Y. 0-6-0ST has been added to the stud of Works' shunting locomotives-No. 11444, which now brings the total of ex L. & Y. engines represented to three.

20/01/1954 Darlington MPD 78010/1 are working from West Auckland on Tebay mineral traffic and 65092 has gone to Kirkby Stephen for their Darlington passenger job. No. 45719 Glorious worked a down passenger through here on 9th January, and 64348 two trips York-Darlington the same week-end. SLS/195402
04/09/1954 York MPD A shortage of locomotive power at York shed on Saturday 4/9/54 was ingeniously met by the following interesting 'projections.' The Newcastle-Lowestoft train leaving York at 10.12 a.m. was worked to Lincoln by 45719 (27A), which re-appeared later in the day on the normal return working from that point. The Newcastle-Cardiff train leaving York at 10.0 a.m, was worked to Sheffield by 60162 (64B), ex-Doncaster Works, and the 9.10 a.m. York to Scarborough was worked by 44137 (21A); this latter, however, failed at Malton and was replaced by 43125 (50C). On the freight side the 8.40 a.m. Class D from York (Dringhouses) to Heaton was worked by 64213 (38A). A pleasing site at York on 5/10/54, in view of the present Diesel supremacy at Hull, was 69102 (53A) returning from Darlington Works to Hull after overhaul and repainting. SLS/195411
