84001 Barrow Hill 11 06 2005

            Preserved 84001 sits at Barrow Hill.

This loco is owned by the AC Locomotive Group who own a collection of static AC locos (Classes 81 to 85) and 89001 which is hopefully going to re-activated.

84001 was built as E3036 by North British Locomotive Company's Glasgow Works and delivered to BR at Longsight in March 1960 (Works No. 27793).

Under TOPS in December 1972, it became 84001.

The class were troublesome for many years and stored early, before getting a second chance as the WCML was extended and more eLoks were needed.

In 1975, it was moved to Crewe Electric and used for both passenger and freight work.

Between 1977 and 1980, the class was withdrawn as the Class 87s had increased the available locos and they were still unreliable.

The end came on 22 January 1979 for 84001 and it was stored.

The rest of the 10 strong class were scrapped including 84009 which had been a Mobile Load Bank loco testing electrical powerlines. The cab of 84009 is also at Barrow Hill after it was scrapped in 1995.
