| 23 - | Haymarket TMD. 1E43 20:05 Aberdeen - King's Cross, from Edinburgh to Doncaster (17 minute delay Doncaster). Casualty report states: Low in fuel. Conclusions: 27.03.80 DME KX states: Although the CM&EE has attributed this casualty to a defective fuel gauge I nevertheless consider that the staff carrying out the previous refuelling should accept some responsibility as the maintenance schedule calls for the operation of the gauges to be checked during refuelling. |
| s24 - | Doncaster TMD. Refuelled - 735 gallons (one fuel gauge reading defective for attention at home depot). |

'LD 125' exam - 330 gallons fuel supplied. 1S77 23:55 King's Cross - Edinburgh, to Berwick (28 minute delay Berwick - 37200 forward 28/02). Casualty report states: out of fuel. Driver reports low fuel and fire bottles set off when isolating DSD to attach 37200, which raises the question did 37200 work forward on 1S77 as stated on report or haul 55012 to Gateshead. Conclusions: 28.03.80 DME KX states: In view of the quantity of fuel added I assume that this was a case of flickering low fuel alarm light rather than complete engine shut down. Finsbury park records show that 330 gallons of fuel were supplied prior to working this train (previous working King's Cross - Hull return). In view of the circumstances the bulk loading and fuel tank venting valves were specially checked on return to Finsbury Park but could not be faulted. |
| 28 - | 0N20 Berwick - Gateshead (possibly hauled by 37200). Gateshead TMD. Repairs - fire bottles & straight air brake valve renewed - 600 gallons fuel supplied. 1E39 22:30 Edinburgh - King's Cross, from Newcastle. |

Conclusions: 18.03.80 DME KX states: Locomotive checked in traffic by CM&EE representative Mr Edwards who revealed engine governor defective. Governor to be changed when replacement supplied by main works and depot engineer to forward defective governor to main works under 'Red Label' procedure. Doncaster TMD. |

Casualty report #2 states: very low in power - No.2 engine shut down due to failure of No.1 coolant hose (locomotive already known to have No.1 engine governor defective giving low output from this power unit). Conclusions: 21.04.80 DME KX states: The replacement engine governor, which should be a main spare at Finsbury Park, has been on order since 13.03.80. Peterborough TMD. |

Casualty report states: guard reported no ETH to train although light indication showing on locomotive. It is assumed loco swapped to 1S72 and was okay to work forward boiler only (see 26/03), as regards following days moves in Scotland, however, report states loco's investigation at Finsbury Park revealed No.2 end ETH cable pulled out of clamp although train heat proving wire was intact (this most likely at 'B' exam on 30/03 as no time was available to run to Finsbury Park and return). Conclusions: 01.04.80 DME KX states: It has been observed that shunting staff have on occasion been using these as foot steps in assistance in getting back onto the platform. 1S72 22:30 King's Cross - Edinburgh. |
