    On this day in History - Day Excursion to Swansea - 4th November 1972

    One way in the early 1970’s of travelling to interesting railway destinations on the cheap was to become a Notts County Football Club supporter for the day and use their football special train (Footex). Being in the old Division 3 at this time meant little risk of football hooligans and some interesting railway destinations. On this day thirty seven years ago Notts County played Swansea away and I used the the Magpies Footex for a trip to South Wales and back with traction being provided by Peak 51 and in lieu of the match a walk out to Landore MPD. Result of the match was a win for Swansea 3-0.

    Nottingham - Swansea

    Steam 44665/72, 44889, 45092, 45138, 45269/73, 48744, 60007/10/26, 70012/13/14/17/21, 71000, 90081, 90243/81, 90300/45/62, 90406/09, 90615/22/50, 92004/09, 92203/20, class 20 (D8039/82, D8164), class 28 (D5709/10/11/18), class 40 (D203/05/06/11/19/24/39/41, D322/23/26/39/40/75/95), class 47 (D1102/04/06/07/08/09/10/11, D1500/02/04/13/15/18/19/26/32/79/93, D1607/16/18/23/25/34/37/62/68/91, D1737/39/47/63/68/78/85/86/95, D1821/49/52/63/64, D1906/22/81/90), class 71 (E5006/15/16/24), class 76 (E26023/29/38/50), class 77 (E27003/06), class 81 (E3001/04/14/15/21/23), class 83 (E3024/34/36/98), class 84 (E3039/45), class 85 (E3088), class 86 (E3171)

    No further steam locomotives would be admitted and the repair of steam locomotives would cease once those present had been repaired or withdrawn. A4, 4-6-2 Pacific’s 60007 Sir Nigel Gresley and 60010 Dominion of Canada were being prepared for preservation with 60026 Miles Beevor being used for spares. 9F, 2-10-0 92220 Evening Star was also being prepared for preservation. The works were in the process of completing the construction of its last order for class 47 locomotives (D1106 – 1111). The class 71 dc electric locomotives had just commenced the process of re-building into class 74 electro-diesels.

    I photographed a number of these engines above in later life and they can be seen in this collection.
