28/02/1946 | Crewe - Smoke deflectors | Smoke deflectors are being fitted to all the non-streamlined Princess Coronation locos in the same way as with 6232/52. 6234/3/50 have so far been so treated. | SLS/194605 |
30/03/1946 | W.D. ENGINES IN HOLLAND | The initials N.S. indicates Nederlandsche Spoorwegen, i.e. Netherlands Railways: this being not a State to concern but a limited liability company. Reference to the Netherlands State Railways is thus incorrect. Another point is that all W.D. locos in Holland are on to loan and have not been purchased. They still have their W.D. numbers in addition to their N.S numbers. Six more 0-6-0 saddle tanks are on loan:-N.S. 8822 to 8827, W.D. 75026/53/86, 75104/15/99. The 2-8-0's (W.D. 77125, 77238) which were allotted N.S. 4528/9 were in an accident last August, and were sent to Malines Works in Belgium. After overhaul, they went to to Western Germany, and so never bore their N.S. numbers. Ten more W.D. 2 8 0's went to the N.S. on loan in January, 1946:-N.S. 4528 to 4537, W.D. 77009/10, 77193/4/7, 77011/38, 77188/90, 77358. Of these, 77193/4/7 came from the Dutch State Mines in Limburg. At the same time N.S. 4511 (W.D. 79196) went to the State Mines (S.M.), while N.S. 4504/9 (W.D. 78677 and 79189) left for Belgium. These three locos. are no longer on the N.S. list. W.D. 77193 was S.M. 62. Also noted S.M. 74 (W.D. 75002). Sixty 2-10-0's are on loan to the N.S. from January, 1946:-N.S. 5001 to 5060: W.D. 73650/61/2/4-71/3/5/6/9-81/9-93/5-9, 73700/1/4-7/9/11-3/5/7-22/7/9/32-4/6-41/4/5/7-9. |

28/03/1946 | L.M.S.R. Liveries | Viscount Garnock writes, 'On the morning of 28th March, 6234 (5A), 5594 (20A) and two modern carriages were standing in No. 7 platform at Euston for the Directors to inspect, chiefly to decide on the choice of livery. Of the two carriages, both were painted 'Midland Lake,' the first having the normal coloured crest in the centre whilst ,the second had in its place a representation of the Doric Arch at Euston encircled by a gold line, the whole thing being finished entirely in 'Midland Lake' and gold. Of the locomotives 6234 (fitted with smoke deflectors), was very striking, being painted a sort of light grey (with a bluish tint) and lined in gold and 'Midland Lake,' the name plate having a background of this latter colour. 5594 was painted 'Midland Lake' lined with gold, though the absence of lining on the slashers and other parts tended rather to spoil the effect. The lettering and numbering on both locomotives was in plain unshaded gold. Both cabs were scrupulously clean with the inside of the roof white and the rest black, various instructions and names of parts being painted in white. On the whole it is thought that the grey livery will not wear so well, as the paint was already cracked on the cylinders of 6234 (paint date 16/3/46).' In connection with the above,'Mr. H. C. Casserley writes that on one side only of 6234 there was a red edging to the yellow lining in place of the usual black. The left-hand side of 5594 was simply lined out with a yellow band whilst the right-hand side had the usual yellow band and black edging. | SLS/194605 |
