Ex-LMS 4-6-0 5MT No 45419 stands outside Rugby shed ready to undertake a Class D trip in 1963. British Railways categorised a Class D working as an: 'Express freight, livestock, perishable or ballast train partly fitted with the automatic brake operative on not less than one third of the vehicles'. Built as LMS No 5419 by Armstrong Whitworth Company in October 1937, No 45419 was renumbered by British Railways in May 1948 which it retained until September 1966 when it was withdrawn from 6A Chester shed to be scrapped by J Cashmore's of Great Bridge.
