Casualty report states: ETH defect - loss of power, only 1000 amps when ETH switch on normal power (CM&EE staff attended - loco sequence tested unable to fault).
9,300 miles since last classified repair (21.12.71).
Conclusion: I understand that before departure 9000 tried twice to obtain ETH, on third occasion OK. I can only assume that this defect was due to an earth fault on the coaching stock and consider that this casualty should be cancelled.

Casualty report states: No.1 engine shut down due to loss of lubricating oil - jubilee clips too slack allowing main lub oil flexible pipe to radiator to disconnect from the radiator (hose replaced & clips tightened).
15,120 miles since last classified repair (21.12.71).
Conclusion: This has been a not uncommon defect with Deltic locomotives working in very cold weather. I believe that sometime ago the CM&EE took up with BREL regarding the security and correct clipping of the hoses and this is the first instance of failure of which I am aware for sometime.

Casualty report states: Fireman's window No.2 end damaged, frame unrepairable - window frame sealing rubber blown out.
35,910 miles since last classified repair (18.12.71).
Conclusion: This is a defect which does not occur time to time on these locomotives, although as far as I am aware this is the first time a casualty has been incurred. Also I would point out that this locomotive has a particularly bad record over several years of ill-fitting doors and windows and distorted cabs, with a recent incident of a fracture several inches long between the windscreens and the cab side & special attention to the cabs was requested on the shopping proposal for the last classified repair.

65,690 miles since last classified repair (18.12.71).
Follow up report dated 31.05.72: Immediately following this casualty the thermostatic by-pass valve was suspected and changed and the radiator blocks cleared externally at depot. This however did not prove effective and following a repeat of this trouble the locomotive was sent to Doncaster Works for radiator change, since which it has performed satisfactorily. In view of the troubles with radiators on this locomotive and also 9001 a few weeks earlier, perhaps the CM&EE will follow up with BREL regarding the general question of radiator attention in works and defects found on locomotives 9001 & 9007 in particular.

75,560 miles since last classified repair (18.12.71).
Conclusions: Although this locomotive has run a considerable period since examination it is felt the quality of workmanship at the last examination leaves something to be desired and the matter is being taken up with the man concerned.

Casualty report sates: DSD defective, No.2 end vigilance warning horn not sounding (Vigilance warning horn armature out of adjustment (DSD isolated & loco worked through to Newcastle).
Driver E Haddon (King's Cross) reports: "The DSD buzzer was not working, so not getting the buzzer to cancel the brakes. We requested fitters and they isolated the deadman."
85,690 since last classified repair (18.12.71).
Conclusions (11/08): This is the second case of which I am aware of one of these horns requiring adjustment, the previous one involved 9020, I consider this defect should not have caused casualty and I have taken it up with driver as to why a ten minute delay was incurred in isolating the equipment (DME King's Cross).

91,820 miles since last classified repair (18.12.71).
Conclusions (22/08): The hose which was leaking was in the radiator roof compartment and one which in practice is not normally noticed during the course of 'A' examination. I would therefore suggest a rewording of the examination schedule to effect that if there is insufficient coolant left in the overflow tank to top up each header tank with the emergency hand pump then a special examination should be carried out for coolant leaks (this would of course include inspection of all hoses).
