Fragonsets 45112 'The Royal Army Ordnance Corps' will turn back the clock to the 1970's if you are fortunate enough to see this 'Peak' out on the mainline. This picture is taken at Crewe Works Open Weekend at the end of May 2003.

This picture could almost have been taken in the early 1980s but in fact this is Thursday
April 8th 2004. To mark the closure of the original St.Pancras train shed to enable it to take
Eurostar arrivals in 2007, a special additional service was put on with an appropriate loco in
charge. Peaks were a common sight on the Midland Main Line in the 1970s so doing the honours
is Fragonset's 45112 'The Royal Army Ordnance Corps' which is seen here at West Hampstead Thameslink
almost at the end of its round trip to the East Midlands.

45 141 and 45 106 accelerate away from Loughborough with the 07:10 Derby - St Pancras, 24/4/82. It was a really difficult morning for photography, mainly dull and gloomy, with only a brief glimpse of sun now and again. Even though this shot is not too good, it is made available here, as double headed Peaks were never common.
