'Class 45 Remembered' Booklet

In 1988, Ian Parrish lived in Sheffield and worked for British Rail at Healey Mills Depot near Wakefield. Between February and May 1988, Ian wrote down information from the BR TOPS (Total Operations Processing System) computer each weekday on the workings of the last Class 45 survivors in BR service.

His notes have been compiled into tables to produce this booklet, showing what each loco was working each day. These are supplemented by a centre page photo section with pictures of some of the workings listed.

Several decades on they provide a fascinating documentation of what the surviving locos were doing in the final few months of service. 

The booklet is A5 size paperback with 40 pages.

Reprinted in 2025 with extra colour photos of 45133.
