    On this Day in History – Toton – 15th March 1970.

    A “bunk round” Toton MPD.

    Class08 (3029/39/44/58, 3249, 3345/62/63, 3777, 3996/97), class 20 (8002/06/10/12/40/41/43/47/74, 8121/22/38/41/46/50/52/54/73/84/87/93), class 25 (5229/38/45, 7506/23, 7652), class 44 (1/3/4/7/8/9/10), class 45 (13/18/35/44/45/48/65/73/94, 105/06/17/22), class 46 (145/53/61/63/85), class47 (1624, 1718/31/36, 1847/58), class 50 (444)

    Locomotives of note are the recent transfers from Scotland 8121/22 seen for the first time and class 50, 444, although this was not the first class 50 I had seen at Toton having seen 411 in 1968 or early 1969.

    A number of the above were photographed later in life and can be found in this collection. As always feedback and comments welcome
