List of Great Central Railway locomotives and rolling stock

This is a comprehensive list of locomotives and rolling stock based at the preserved Great Central Railway at Loughborough, Leicestershire and the Nottingham Transport Heritage Centre near Ruddington.

Mainline steam locomotives

The Great Central can call upon a varied and powerful fleet of steam classes representing each of the United Kingdom's "Big Four" railway companies and British Rail. Some of them once worked along the original route, and others are a part of classes which did see service there.

Operational
No. 1744[1]	GNR Class N2 0-6-2T	1744 was built by the North British Locomotive Company, and was one of the many of the class fitted with condensing units for work in the London Underground. Based for most of her working life at King's Cross (34A) her main duties were on suburban trains. Withdrawn in 1962 at New England depot (35A), she was purchased for preservation, first at Doncaster and then at the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, where several broken tubes caused her to be moved to Loughborough in 1975. Boiler ticket is due to expire in 2019, now her third since preservation. Currently at the Nene Valley Railway.	GNR Apple Green.	The Gresley Society.	1921
No. 777 Sir Lamiel[2]	LSWR Class N15 4-6-0	777 was built by North British in the later batches of N15s, which became known as "Scotch Arthurs", Based mostly in service at Nine Elms (70A). After the war she moved to Eastleigh (71A), but the Southern Region's electrification policy caused withdrawal in 1959. The NRM had earmarked her for preservation before then, and in 1978 she returned to steam, after an extensive overhaul at Hull Dairycoates (53A). A third overhaul, completed in 2006 has allowed for further operations on the national network. Boiler Ticket expires in October 2016.	SR Malachite Green.

No. 47406[3]	LMS Fowler Class 3F 0-6-0T	47406 was built by the Vulcan Foundry. First based at Warrington (8B) and Crewe South (5B), in 1928 she started a long period of work at Carnforth (11A), which lasted for 32 years. From 1960 many more allocations were made, ending at Edge Hill (8A) in 1967. Delivered to Woodham Brothers in the summer of 1968, all mechanical parts had been sold by the time she was rescued by the Rowsley Locomotive Trust in 1983. In 1989, owner Roger Hibbert took her to Loughborough, where restoration was completed in early 2010. Boiler ticket expires in 2019.	BR Unlined Black with the Early Crest.	Private owner.	1926
No. 45305 Alderman A.E.Draper[4]	LMS Stanier Class 5 4-6-0	45305 was built by Armstrong Whitworth of Newcastle and was allocated to several depots before becoming based at Lostock Hall (10D) by 1968, one of only three steam sheds left at the end of BR steam. Withdrawn at the very end on 4 August 1968, she was sold to Draper's Scrapyard, before being saved for restoration. In preservation she has continued the Five's 'Ubiquity' by working across Britain, even going up into the Highlands in the 1980s. Since 1996 she has been based at Loughborough, where her current boiler ticket expiring in 2020.	BR Lined Black with the Late Crest.	5305 Locomotive Association.	1936
No. 48624[5]	LMS Stanier 8F 2-8-0	Restored at Peak Rail in 2009, after nearly 30 years of work, she was repainted into an LMS maroon livery (only ever worn authentically by express-passenger classes of the company). She ran at the railway for about a year, & was then put on loan to other lines, but became a semi-permanent resident of the Great Central in early 2011. Repainted into a more authentic BR Black, her boiler ticket expires in 2019	BR Unlined Black with the Early Crest.	48624 Locomotive Company.	1943
No. 6990 Witherslack Hall[6]	GWR 6959 Class 4-6-0	Built at Swindon Works, 6990 was selected as a post-nationalisation locomotive to participate in the Locomotive Exchanges of 1948, on the former Great Central Main Line. Following the trials she was based at Old Oak Common TMD (81A) until 1966 and was then sold to Woodham Brothers Ltd. She was purchased for preservation and returned to the Great Central in 1975. The locomotive returned to service following her second 10-year overhaul in preservation in October 2015. During her last overhaul, Witherslack Hall's Collett tender was exchanged with 4930 Hagley Hall's former Hawksworth tender. Boiler ticket expires in 2025.	BR Lined Green with the Early Crest.

No. 70013 Oliver Cromwell[7]	BR Standard Class 7 4-6-2	70013 was built by Crewe Works as an Eastern Region allocation, being based at Norwich (32A) until transfer to the LMR. Thanks to an overhaul undertaken at Crewe, she was the only member of the class operational in 1968 and was selected to haul the Fifteen Guinea Special at the end of steam. The importance of the train meant that she would join the National Collection, and in 2004 was moved to GCR for restoration to celebrate 40 years of the 1T57. Boiler ticket expires in 2018, though now performing on mainline, she is maintained annually at Loughborough prior to each season.	BR Lined Green with the Late Crest.

No. 46521[8]	LMS Ivatt Class 2 2-6-0	46521 was built at Swindon Works as part of a batch of Western Region Ivatt Class 2s. Because of this she was based at ex-Great Western depots, including Oswestry (89A) and Machynlleth (89C), but was withdrawn from service in 1966 and was sent to Barry scrapyard during 1967. Her first home in preservation was at the Severn Valley Railway from 1971, restored at Bridgnorth in 1974. After several years of work a complete rebuild including the fitting of off road tyres was finished at Loughborough in late 2011. And (now painted for the first time in black) her boiler ticket now expires in 2021.	BR Unlined Black with the Early Crest.	Loughborough Standard Locomotive Group. Private owner.	1953
No. 92214[9]	BR Standard Class 9F 2-10-0	92214 was built by Swindon Works and allocated to Cardiff Canton (86C) upon entering service. Upon withdrawal from Severn Tunnel Junction (86E) in 1965, she was sold to Barry Scrapyard. In 1980, she was moved to the Midland Railway Centre and restored to full working order. In 2010, the locomotive was sold to the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, where she was named Cock o' the North in 2011. Originally arriving at the GCR to attend the winter steam gala in 2014, an agreement was made between her owners and the Director of the GCR which saw 92214 become part of the GCR fleet permanently. Boiler ticket expires in 2023.	BR Lined Green with the Late Crest.	Cromwell Tools Private owner.	1959

No. 45491[11]	LMS Stanier Class 5 4-6-0	In 2011 she was delivered to Loughborough from Butterley for restoration, which is hoped will be completed in 2014/15. The tender has already been completed, with most of the work now concentrated on the boiler, which was removed from the frames in Easter 2012.	BR Black.	Private owner.	1943	~
No. 48305[12]	LMS Stanier 8F 2-8-0	Built at Crewe Works, 48305 was based for much of her career at Cricklewood (14A), operating across the Midlands. After moving between other sheds, including Crewe South (5B) and Speke Junction (8C), she was withdrawn in 1968, just before the end of steam. During the time spent at Barry she was sprayed with the words "Please don't let me die!" on the smokebox door, but was saved by Roger Hibbert in 1985 and was restored back to steam in the next 10 years. In 2011, half way though her boiler ticket the decision was taken to perform another major overhaul, with no date given for completion.	BR Unlined Black with the Early Crest.	Private owner.	1943
No. 34039 Boscastle[13]	SR West Country Class 4-6-2	34039 was built at Brighton Works, and was based at Stewarts Lane TMD (73A). She was rebuilt at Eastleigh for use in Bournemouth (71B), and was withdrawn from service in 1965. She became the first motive power at Loughborough in 1973. Restoration was not completed until 1992, with many issues causing withdrawal in 2000. A group was formed in 2005 which is now working to return her to working order with a £200,000 overhaul programme.[14] The boiler is off site, and the locomotive has been re-wheeled.

No. 78018[15]	BR Standard Class 2MT 2-6-0	78018 is a BR Standard Class 2MT 2-6-0 locomotive, built at Darlington North Road Works. It entered traffic on 3 March 1954, at West Auckland Shed (County Durham). It was then transferred to Chester Midland in April 1960; Workington in 1962; Willesden in May 1963; Nuneaton in September 1965 and finally Shrewsbury before withdrawal on 12 November 1966. 78018 then spent 11 years at Barry scrapyard before being preserved at Shackerstone in November 1978. 78018 became famous for getting stuck in a snow drift during February 1955, which resulted in the film Snowdrift at Bleath Gill. This loco is now owned by the Darlington Railway Preservation Society and arrived at the GCR in November 2012 for the competition of its overhaul. An agreement is in place for the loco to become a resident at the GCR for the next 10 years. This locomotive is currently undergoing restoration, with more work now required on the boiler which is now out of the frames.	BR Black.	Darlington Railway Preservation Society.	1953
No. 78019[16]	BR Standard Class 2 2-6-0	78019 was built by Darlington Works and was allocated to Kirkby Stephen (51H), working on local and banking duties through the Lake District. After turns to Willesden (1A), Nuneaton (2B) and Crewe South (5B) she was withdrawn in 1966 and sold to Barry Scrapyard, being moved there the next year. In 1973 she was moved to the Severn Valley Railway, but restoration was never carried out there due to more pressing projects. The locomotive was moved to the Great Central where its major restoration was completed in 2004. After giving eleven years of reliable service, 78019's boiler ticket expired in May 2015. Its ten-yearly overhaul is underway.	BR Lined Black with the Late Crest.	Loughborough Standard Locomotive Group. Private owner.	1954
No. 73156[17]	BR Standard Class 5 4-6-0	73156 is the last survivor of all Doncaster-built BR standards. Allocated to Neasden depot (34E), from where she would regularly work on the ex-Great Central line. After several spells at sheds on the London Midland Region, she was withdrawn in 1967. When rescued from Barry and taken to the East Lancashire Railway, most minor parts had already been sold, but many new ones were purchased and fitted by 2003, when she was transferred to the Great Central to continue restoration, which is now progressing well. A new BR1B tender is being built off-site to replace the original.	BR Lined Black with the Late Crest.	73156 Standard 5 Support Group. Loughborough Standard Locomotive Group.	1956
No. 1631	USATC S160 Class 2-8-0	1631 was one of more than 2000 identical locomotives built for use in Europe during World War II. After the war it was retained for service in Hungary as number 411.388, withdrawn in the 1980s and converted into a static generator before being taken to England in 1995 for storage on the East Lancashire Railway. The locomotive changed hands twice before being moved to Ruddington in 2004. A large collection of parts from two other locomotives are also stored as a source of spares, and restoration is underway.	~	Private owner.	1942
Stored or static
No. 63601[18]	GCR Class 8K 2-8-0	63601 was built at Gorton locomotive works and was based at Doncaster (36A), primarily hauling slow goods on former Great Central metals. She was withdrawn from service in 1966, as a veteran of two World Wars and three rail companies, but the role the O4s played in the early 20th century caused her to become custodian of the National Collection. An appeal was raised by Steam Railway to return her to steam, which was completed at Loughborough in 2000 and it became a regular and popular performer. Boiler ticket expired in late 2010, but its ticket was extended for another two years before it was withdrawn from service on 24 June 2012 when the extension expired. It is now awaiting overhaul. It is planned that the locomotive will be one of the exhibits for the railway's new museum at Leicester North. [19]	BR Unlined Black with the Late Crest.	National Railway Museum.	1912
No. 567	GCR Class 2 4-4-0[20]	The Class 2s were a series of express locomotives built between 1887 and 1892 for use on the MSLR. When the LNER formed they became the D7s, by then they were already obsolete, and all were withdrawn between 1926 and 1939, with no preserved examples.[21] in 2011, a project was launced to build a new member of the class to modern engineering standards for running on the Great Central Railway. No 567 is new build locomotive, with cylinder block and tender chassis already purchased. The total project budget of £450,000 is projected GCR 567 Project Hoped to be completed in 2022/2023.[20]	~	D7 (LNER) Project.	~	~

Industrial steam locomotives

Industrial steam locomotives became the mainstay of steam power in early British railway preservation before the Barry Scrapyard veterans were fully restored. Many have huge traction efforts despite their small sizes, making them more than capable of hauling large passenger trains.

In 1974 she was due to be destroyed at a nearby scrapyard, but was saved and spent 18 months at the Great Central before being put on display in Swanwick museum at the Midland Railway Butterley in 1979. Now back at Loughborough since 2011 after a 35-year absence, work will start on her restoration when the owner's other locomotive, 45491 has been completed.	Maroon.	Private owner.	1946

Mainline diesel shunters

With period railway scenes in mind and with the cheaper and more effective running costs they can deliver, there are a handful of ex-British Rail diesel shunters based on site. Despite normally working lightly they sometimes feature at special events on passenger and freight traffic.

13101[22]	British Rail Class 08 0-6-0DE	13101 (later D3101) was built at Derby Works as one of a batch of 10 air-braked shunters which were also given an English Electric 6KT engine and was allocated to the Southern Region. Based primarily at Ashford (73F) & Eastleigh (71A), in 1973 she left the Southern for use at Loughborough Midland station and its local sidings. After withdrawal she was bought by a Great Central Railway volunteer and arrived at Loughborough in December 1984. In 2010 she returned to regular shunting duties after a long restoration and now performs as shed pilot for Loughborough Central. Funds were raised on the 2012 Autumn Steam gala for this loco to be repainted and this long awaited task was carried out and completed in time for the September 2013 Diesel gala, the livery being BR green.

D3690 (08528) [23]	British Rail Class 08 0-6-0DE	D3690 originally entered traffic in March 1959, and was mainly based on the Eastern Region of BR until EWS took over its ownership and concentrated its activities from Toton. From archive photographs it is possible to see that it originally carried green livery with the standard diesel version of the lion and wheel totem displayed on its body side and battery box side. When moving to Stratford depot it underwent a repaint receiving a smart BR blue livery with the words "Liverpool Street Station Pilot" painted along the running plate. Whilst at Stratford it has received a new power unit which remains today. When moving to Peterborough the loco again received new colours, this time a single dark grey engineer’s livery. In preservation, the loco now carries the British Railways green livery once again.	BR Green (Late Crest) without wasp stripes	Private Owner	1955
No. 13180	British Rail Class 08 0-6-0DE	13180 was built at Derby Works as no. D3180, allocated to nearby Derby (17A), working there on pilot shunting duties until withdrawal in 1983. After a narrow escape from the cutter's torch she was purchased for preservation and was transferred to the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway. Until 1997 she had also spent some time at the southern section of the Great Central Railway, before moving to the heritage complex at Ruddington, where she works on shunting duties in the yard, and at diesel galas also performs on shuttle passenger trains.

No. 08694	British Rail Class 08 0-6-0DE	08694 was built at Horwich Works and was first allocated to Annesley Depot (16B), carrying pre-TOPS number D3861. In 1962 she was moved to Nottingham (16A) and lived there until the shed closed in 1967. Following the closure she spent 20 years at Crewe until purchase by now-defunct EWS in the 1990s for work at Toton (TO), and Old Oak Common (OC). After retirement in 2009, she was delivered to the Great Central in 2009 from Rotherham. Her restoration was completed in 2013, enabling her to operate at the September Diesel gala.	EWS Red & Gold.

No. D2118	British Rail Class 03 0-6-0DM	Built at Swindon, D2118 was first based at Swansea (87A), to replace Great Western locomotives. Within less than a decade she moved to Barrow and was withdrawn in the 1970s due to mechanical failures. She was saved from scrap by contractors in Norfolk, but was out of work again by the 1980s. After being declared redundant a third time, she was preserved at Rutland Railway Museum and Peak Rail, where she was sold off in late 2010. The new owner now intends to undertake the restoration at Ruddington, with completion of motor work planned for 2011.	BR Rail Blue.	Private owner.	1959	~
No. 10119 Margaret Ethel-Thomas Alfred Naylor[24]	British Rail Class 10 0-6-0DE	D4067 was built at Darlington Works, fitted with a Lister Blackstone engine. She was based for her British Rail service career in South Yorkshire. However, in 1971 she was sold to the National Coal Board, which relocated her to Betteshanger Colliery in Kent, followed by three years spent at Nailstone from 1976. After that she was withdrawn completely from service and was purchased for private preservation at Loughborough. After several years of hard restoration work carried out her first train ran in 1986 was later named, after the parents of the owner. Undergoing repairs to the generator.	BR Rail Blue.

No. 07005	British Rail Class 07 0-6-0DE	07005 was built by the Ruston and Hornsby engine company as part of the 14-strong class of shunters. Her first home was at Eastleigh TMD (71A), working light-freight trains to and from Southampton Docks (71I). Retired in 1977 in favour of more-efficient classes, she left the area for a brief period of work in Middlesbrough, far cry from the Southern Region city port. After a lengthy amount of time spent in storage at Barrow Hill, she moved to the Battlefield Line Railway in 2002. She has since moved to the Great Central and spent a long time at Swithland sidings awaiting restoration. During summer 2012, 07005 was shunted out of Swithland sidings and moved to Loughborough Central were the restoration work will take place. This will include a full motor overhaul. This major overhaul is now continuing off site.	BR Rail Blue.	Private owner.	1962
No. 08220	British Rail Class 08 0-6-0DE	08220 was also built at Derby Works and operated primarily on the London Midland Region until withdrawal in the 1990s. After being taken out of service she was stored at Carnforth to provide a source of spares parts for sister engine 08678, but was only lightly stripped with most taken parts being internal mechanisms. Nonetheless she was to eventually to be moved to a private site at a farm yard near Wrenbury for static display. She arrived at Ruddington for restoration in 2008, which has included a comprehensive replacement of all the removed equipment. Off site on loan.	BR Rail Blue.	English Electric Preservation.	1956	~

Industrial diesel shunters

In addition to the larger network shunters there is also a modest collection of old industrial designs in varying states of repair.

No. 15097	Simplex 0-4-0PM	15097 (works number 1930) was built by Motor Rail Ltd and was ultimately preserved after a long career at various English foundries. She was first based at the Midland Railway – Butterley, but years of disuse caused her to be sold to Derby Industrial Museum for static display. Circa 2000, she was moved to Ruddington for full restoration and was repainted (alongside Morris) into an anachronistic BR livery to resemble LNER Class Y11 shunters, but unlike Morris she still retains a pertrol-burning engine.

No. 15099 Morris	Simplex 0-4-0DM	Morris (works number 2028) was built at Motor Rail (Simplex) Works in Bedford and started out at Exeley & Sons Ltd in Shropshire from new. In 1935 her petrol engine was replaced by a modern diesel design and she was sold that year to Davy Morris Works in Loughborough, working there until withdrawal in the late 1980s. Arriving at Ruddington in 1990 she was the first motive power on site at the start of the railway's preservation, but was held in store for years at Rushcliffe Halt until restoration was carried out. After visits to other heritage railways she is back in regular service on shunting duties.	BR Black with the Early Crest.	Simplex 2028 Association.	1920	~
Marblaegis	Ruston & Hornsby 88DS 0-4-0DM	Marblaegis was built by Ruston & Hornsby to work at the British Gypsum foundry at Rushcliffe and East Leake, which is still part of the railway complex which makes up the Great Central's preserved northern section. In 1991 she was withdrawn from service and was chosen to remain at the railway as preserved. After 11 years spent in open storage she was towed to the heritage complex, covered in a decade of residue from the Gypsum company. A full overhaul and repaint followed and she returned to service in Summer 2003. She performs on shunting duties on some days and was repainted again in 2009.	Green.	Simplex 2028 Association.	1946
No. 28 Bardon[25]	Andrew Barclay 0-4-0DM	Bardon was built at Andrew Barclay's Caledonian Works in Kilmarnock. Originally named Duke of Edinburgh, she worked at Bardon Hill Quarries in Leicestershire for 25 years until being put out of use in 1981. After four years in active storage she was given away to the Great Central's former owning charity in 1985. Her main job was to pilot permanent way trains for the extension of the line between Rothley and Belgrave and Birstall, but upon its completion she was taken out of service once again. Today she is based at Rothley, as a shed pilot for the Railway Vehicle Preservations carriage works.	Lined Green.	Private owner.	1956
D2959 Staythorpe	Ruston & Hornsby 165 0-4-0DE	Staythorpe was built in Grantham and was bought by National Power for regular use as a mineral train shunter at Staythorpe Power Station in Nottinghamshire. She was taken off the hands of the station in early 1994 to assist with track-laying at Ruddington following the purchase of more resources for the heritage centre. After the completion of the project she has returned to service as a standard yard shunter and over the years has been in service in various liveries, including most recently with a fictional BR livery and number.

No. D4279 Arthur Wright	John Fowler 0-4-0DM	Arthur Wright was built for use at the East Midlands Gas Board. Her first area of work was at Carr House Works in Rotherham, before moving to Derby in the 1960s. Afterwards she was sold to Albert Looms in 1970 and worked for the company until 1974, and was sold into private hands. Arriving in early 1975, she was repainted and named after the late Arthur Wright, a director for the MLST. In her earliest years of preservation she was proven to be a valuable asset to the railway, when run-round facilities were very limited. However, she is now in store at Swithland, awaiting a much-needed overhaul.	Dark blue.	Private owner.	1952	~

Mainline diesel locomotives

Both railways have a large collection of heritage diesel locomotives and hold at least two galas each year to run them, in addition to parallel operations with the steam fleet.

No. D8098[26]	British Rail Class 20 Bo-Bo	D8098 was built by Robert Stephenson and Hawthorns of Newcastle (then in the custody of English Electric), and was allocated first to Eastfield TMD in Glasgow, remaining there right up until the 1980s. She was then based at Tinsley (TI) and ended up spending her last years of work in the North East, finally withdrawn in 1991. She was purchased for preservation in 1992 and arrived on site at Loughborough, starting up again later in the same year. After undergoing overhaul in 2011 she is once again available for traffic.

No. D5185 Castell Dinas Brân[27]	British Rail Class 25 Bo-Bo	D5185 was built at Darlington Works in 1963, the last mainline locomotive constructed in the city before the completion of 60163 Tornado in 2008. She was first based at Toton (TO) but was then moved around and also saw service across all of Britain (sans the Southern Region), working from Crewe all the way to Edinburgh. In 1987 she became the last member of the class to haul a BR passenger train, and was soon withdrawn from service. 25035 sat at Humberstone Road until 9 September when it was moved to Vic Berry’s yard. In 2004 she moved to Loughborough for bodywork repairs from Northampton, and has remained there ever since. Returned to service in 2015 following repairs.

No. D7629	British Rail Class 25 Bo-Bo	D7629 was built at Beyer-Peacock works in Gorton on ex. Great Central metals. After nearly 30 years in British Rail service, she was bought for preservation at the Llangollen Railway and was based there until 2002. After a spell on loan to the Great Central Railway at Loughborough, she moved to Ruddington later on and has been working there from then on. Since then she has had a few repaints, engine and bodywork repairs and works at major special events and on days when other locomotives are not available.

No. D5401	British Rail Class 27 Bo-Bo	D5401 was built at Birmingham Carriage and Wagon Works of Smethwick. Originally based at Cricklewood (14A), she was re-allocated to Eastfield Depot in 1969 for push-pull trains between Glasgow and Edinburgh. In 1983 she was selected to haul the Royal Train along the West Highland Line to Fort William, and continued to sport the decor that had been put on for the occasion right up to withdrawal in 1987. In 1988 she was officially preserved and was to be based at the Northampton & Lamport Railway until 2007. D5401 failed at Leicester North during the September 2012 diesel gala and only returned to service in March 2013 after some work taking place including the rotten roof panels being replaced with new ones and repairs to the top part of the frames.

No. D5830[28]	British Rail Class 31 A1A-A1A	D5830 was built at Brush Traction works and allocated to Sheffield. Through her working life she was renumbered 31297, 31463 and 31563, fitted with electric heating equipment and subsequently worked on civil engineering trains after the heating was disconnected. After ending her career at Toton TMD (TO) she was bought as a source of spares for another class 31, but proved to be in better condition and was restored instead. Today she wears the prototypical livery that was carried by scrapped sister D5579.	BR Golden Ochre with the Late Crest (half-yellow ends).	Type One Locomotive Company.	1962
No. D6535 Hertfordshire Rail Tours[29]	British Rail Class 33 Bo-Bo	D6535 was built by Birmingham Carriage & Wagon Company and was based at Eastleigh (71A) during BR service, performing on a variety of duties including passenger service and banking assistance. After disbandment of British Railways she was sold to EWS for freight work and was put into storage at Old Oak Common (OC) after an accidental collision. By this time she had been selected to become part of the NRM and was moved to Loughborough in 2005.	BR Rail Blue (full-yellow ends).	National Railway Museum. 5305 Locomotive Association.	1960
No. 37198[30]	British Rail Class 37 Co-Co	37198 has had a varied existence since it was withdrawn by EWS. Preserved in 2004 she was moved to the Wensleydale Railway where she was restored to working order and repainted BR blue - it worked its first passenger trains in preservation in May 2005. In 2006 it moved to the Dartmoor Railway, where it was often used on passenger workings. However, its owners (BRE Ltd) went bankrupt in November 2007 and 37198 was sold for scrap. 37198 was sold again to Network Rail and moved to Rothley on the GCR, where it was repainted in NR yellow, and had a number of repairs carried out. It is on extended long term loan to the GCR but is likely to return to Network Rail at some point this year.	Network Rail Yellow.	Network Rail.	1964
No. 37255[31]	British Rail Class 37 Co-Co	37255 was built by the Vulcan Foundry of Newton-Le-Willows. Very little is known about her pre-preservation career apart from the fact that she was purchased n 2003 from EWS and subsequently moved by road to the GCR (by this time in poor condition) where the owner returned it to operation. Today it is used for the permanent way train, but sometimes hauls passenger trains as well. In the near future she will require repairs and a bodywork overhaul to continue service and will possibly be retained for mainline use.	DCE Grey and Yellow.	Private owner.	1965
No. 45041 Royal Tank Regiment[32]	British Rail Class 45 1Co-Co1	45041 was built at Crewe Works in 1962 and entered traffic on 25 June that year. On 24 September 1964 the locomotive was named "Royal Tank Regiment". 45041 was used on a variety of passenger and freight duties throughout the 1960s but by the 1980s it was predominantly used on freight trains as it was not one of the 50 Class 45s that were converted to supply electric train heat (ETH) in the mid-1970s. On 8 June 1988, it was condemned and taken out of service at Thornaby depot after 45041 suffered from a traction motor problem whilst working a stone train from Peak Forest to Leeds. It was 1994 before the loco left the depot and was moved to Crewe Heritage Centre having been preserved by Pete Waterman. The Peak Locomotive Company purchased the engine from Pete in February 1996 and restoration work began upon its arrival at the Midland Railway Centre. 45041 arrived at the Great Central in the summer of 2012 but was plagued with oil pressure problems. These repairs were completed in 2013 and the loco returned to service for the September Diesel Gala.	BR Rail Blue (full-yellow ends).	Peak Locomotive Company.	1962
No. D123 Leicestershire and Derbyshire Yeomanry[33]	British Rail Class 45 1Co-Co1	D123 was built at Crewe Works for use in the Midlands, first allocated to Derby (17A) and based there until 1965. Toton (TO) was to be her 1973 allocation, followed by Sheffield Tinsley Depot (TI) in 1986. Withdrawn in the following year, she remained in service and was used at Mickleover Test Track until 1990. She was selected (being in better condition than several other examples) for preservation in 1991 at Hull Dairycoates, but was purchased by the 5305LA and was transferred to Loughborough in 1998.

No. 47292	British Rail Class 47 Co-Co	47292 was built at Crewe Works for the Eastern Region. Following the privatisation of British Rail she was allocated to the Freightliner Group. Remaining in service up until 31 December 2003 when she was withdrawn in full working order for having no TPWS fitted. She spent 42 months in store at Basford Hall yard in Crewe before leaving by low loader for preservation at the GCRN at Ruddington in 2007. She made her debut in passenger service over the August Bank Holiday 2007 weekend and has been in service since including visits to the East Lancashire Railway in July 2009, Mid-Norfolk Railway in September 2012, Swanage Railway and Didcot Railway Centre in May 2014. She continues in full working order as at April 2016.	BR Large Logo Blue (half-yellow ends).	Private owner.	1966
No. 56097	British Rail Class 56 Co-Co	56097 was built at Doncaster Works and entered traffic in October 1981, allocated initially to Tinsley depot. In its early years of service it was primarily a Yorkshire coalfield locomotive but its sphere of operation widened in later years and it also spent time allocated to Toton, Thornaby and Immingham depots. It was purchased from EWS in 2002 and overhauled by a very small team initially at the former Cathays Depot in Cardiff, and subsequently at the Ruddington site of the GCRN. The power unit was overhauled off site by North Lincs Engineering and then reinstalled at Brush Traction where a bogie swap was also undertaken. Following load banking on site at Ruddington 56097 entered service in 2008. Since then it has seen use on passenger services and on one occasion a freight train. On 23 October 2010 56097 hauled an incoming train of gypsum from Loughborough to East Leake Gypsum works with a trailing load of 1450t plus a GBRf class 66/7. 56097 was not used on timetabled passenger services during 2014 due to the unavailability of the GCRN's rake of air braked stock. It is nevertheless serviceable and available for traffic. 56097 has visited galas at the East Lancs Railway and the Mid Norfolk Railway, and is available for hire.	Trainload Coal (half-yellow ends).

No. E6016[34]	British Rail Class 73 Bo-Bo	E6016 was built by the Vulcan Foundry and started life out on the Southern Region at Eastleigh. In the 1980s she became a regular performer on the former. Gatwick Express services and worked with Dutch Civil Engineers subsidiary later on, until being chosen for preservation in 2004. She moved to the Churnet Valley Railway, and was repainted in 2006. Just months later she was moved yet again to Long Marston Sidings for two years and ended up at Ruddington in 2008, where she operates at most special events.	BR Electric Blue (half-yellow ends).

No. 37009[35]	British Rail Class 37 Co-Co	D6709 was built at Vulcan for allocation to Stratford Depot (ST). In 2001 after the disbandment of British Rail she was sold by English, Welsh and Scottish Railway (EWS) to Direct Rail Services and worked under them for two years. She was moved to the Churnet Valley Railway in 2003, work began on her traction generator. In 2007 she moved to Ruddington via Rushcliffe Halt, shortly after the Class 20s at the centre. Work is progressing to return her to traffic in 2015, with an in-built steam boiler.	BR Blue with full yellow ends.	English Electric Preservation.	1961	~
No. 46010[36]	British Rail Class 46 1Co-Co1	46010 was built at Derby and was outshopped as D147 from new. Based in the Midlands until 1971, she was then transferred to the Western Region in 1971 to replace outdated diesel-hydraulic classes. In 1981 she moved again to Gateshead, but a series of major faults caused withdrawal in 1984. Narrowly escaping scrap, she was purchased for preservation at Llangollen in 1993. After several years of service she was offered a new home at Ruddington and has been actively based there since 2009. She is currently undergoing extensive repairs.	BR Rail Blue (full-yellow ends).

Arriving at Rushcliffe Halt that year by low-loader, she languished for a while longer before major engine work was undertaken in 2009. In September 2009 she moved under her own power for a loaded test run and debuted in regular service at the annual October gala. Currently undergoing a bodywork overhaul though operated on 13th September 2015 along with 47292 and 25279 on passenger service.	N/A.	Private owner.	1965	~

No. 25265 Harlech Castle[37]	British Rail Class 25 Bo-Bo	25265 was built at Derby Works and started working in the Midlands, being given her run-in trials around Toton. Continuing the classes' reputation for "getting everywhere", she moved to Scotland and regularly travelled as far as Inverness until 1968. From then on she was based at several depots in the Midlands, before being withdrawn from Crewe in 1987. First preserved at Peak Rail and then the Battlefield Line Railway, in 1995 and was moved to Loughborough in 1999. She is now at Nemesis Rail at Burton upon Trent undergoing an overhaul.

No. 20154[38]	British Rail Class 20 Bo-Bo	20154 was built by Vulcan (then under the control of English Electric) and had a more varied career than most members of the class, being based for spells on the London Midland, Eastern and Scottish Regions. In 1987 she was overhauled for the last time at Derby works, becoming the last one to receive such treatment. She was sold to EWS in 1999 and moved to the Churnet Valley Railway in 2000, remaining there until 2007. Now based at Ruddington, she has been restored to her 1970s condition.

Coaching stock

Whole sets of coaches are in use on a daily basis, from rare LNER postal vehicles and observation cars to the far more common BR Mk1s.

British Railways Mark 1 coaches

The BR Mark 1 entered service in 1951 as a standardisation of passenger stock on all regions. They were built using the best elements of the four railway companies stock creating a very sophisticated design. One of the largest groups preserved is used every operating day at the Great Central Railway as they fit in well with the 1950s-style atmosphere. Those examples which aren't in storage or under work are compiled into four uniformal rakes, each with brake and catering facilities.

British Railways Mark 2 and Mark 3 coaches

More modern BR stock isn’t really at home on a railway with period recreation in mind, but many have found work behind the scenes of the heritage operations. However, the Northern section intends to create a full vacuum-braked Mk2 set to replicate another lost era in British Rail history, taking less-efficient vehicles out of rotation as better examples are brought in.

Great Central Railway coaches

When the Great Central Railway was formed it was billed under the slogan "Rapid travel in luxury", and it was right to do this because it was able to boast the very latest and best in express passenger travel. Today the GCR Rolling Stock Trust based at Ruddington are the owners of the single largest collection of ex-GCR stock in the world.

To be restored when more of the passenger vehicles are completed, but has undergone vacuum-tube repairs in early 2011.	Maroon.	Railway Vehicle Preservations.	1936	~
No. 23981[122]	Gresley TTO	Since the completion of 24278 in 2011, a new campaign was launched to raise £35,000 for restoration,[123] and work will begin when enough of the money has been raised.	N/A.	Railway Vehicle Preservations.	1936
No. 24080[124]	Gresley RB	Stored outside in the Rothley carriage & wagon department for restoration. As two other RB vehicles are preserved at the Great Central, the owner has decided to convert it into a RF in the standard teak condition.	N/A.	Railway Vehicle Preservations. Private owner.	1936

No. E9124E[127]	Gresley RB	Sold by RVP in 2005, making it the only LNER coach outside of RVP's ownership.

Great Central Railway Plc.	1937
No. E70294E[128]	Gresley POS	Operational as the only one of its type with working postal equipment, allowing use on demonstration mail drops. Work still needs to be done to conclude the restoration, but is otherwise an immaculate piece of vehicle preservation.	Deep maroon.	Railway Vehicle Preservations.	1937
No. 57451[129]	Gresley BTK	Awaiting light restoration, but as the body's condition is very good, more attention will need to be paid to the less complete coaches before starting on this one.	Varnished teak.	Railway Vehicle Preservations.	1940

Goods wagons

The GCR has a very extensive range of wagons and goods vans. Many are used as working vehicles on the railway for the transport of rail, ballast and equipment. Still more are used to run demonstration freight trains at the GCR’s gala events illustrating a time when most goods were carried by rail.^[133]

Windcutter

63601 with the windcutter set.

Lengthy trains of mineral wagons were a common feature on British Railways and the Windcutter Project set out to recreate such scenes. The idea of preserving a long train of mineral wagons was first aired in Steam Railway early in 1992 and following an encouraging initial response an appeal was launched in the August issue to purchase suitable wagons for use on the Great Central Railway. The appeal was a huge success, Steam Railway readers and supporters of GCR raised over £14,000 to purchase and restore the wagons.

With the exception of the two un-restored wagons, all the mineral wagons in the ‘Windcutter’ fleet are either fitted with vacuum brake or have been through piped to run in a vacuum braked train. This means that to be fully authentic all the wagons should carry British Railways ‘Bauxite’ livery. However the original aim of the project was to recreate the sight of long trains of unfitted mineral wagons as seen on the GCR in BR days and all over the BR network in the days of steam, and in some areas even as late as the early 1980s. All BR un-fitted freight vehicles were painted grey and hence to recreate the overall appearance of a steam era mineral train the majority of the wagons in the ‘Windcutter’ fleet have been restored in this colour.^[134]
