            85023 ambles through Crewe light engine, 16th July 1977.

Locomotive History
85023 was originally E3078 and is one of a class of forty AC electric locomotives, classified AL5 built by Doncaster Works with electrical equipment supplied by AEI. E3078 entered traffic in March 1963 although deliveries of AL5’s were spread over the three and a half years, with the last, E3095 not entering traffic until the last week of 1964. Not having been plagued by the problems of earlier types, the AL5s led a fairly uneventful existence for the next twenty plus years on secondary passenger, parcels and freight duties through out the West Coast Main Line. Class 85 withdrawals commenced in 1983 but mass withdrawals did not commence until the end of 1989. 85023 was withdrawn in April 1990 and was broken up by MC Metals, Glasgow during October 1992.
