Locomotive History
86036 was built at Doncaster Works as E3160 and entered traffic in October 1966. In the early years the class 86 locomotives became notorious for track damage, being fitted with axle-hung traction motors, in place of the bogie-frame-mounted motors of the earlier designs. This additional unsprung mass was causing damage at high speeds. As a result a batch of locomotives was modified with improved suspension and modified wheels and from 1973 onwards, locomotives were progressively renumbered into the 86001-86048 (unmodified design, restricted to 80mph) and 86204-86252 series (improved suspension, 100mph). Within a short time a further batch was modified to the new specification and 86040-86048 were renumbered 86253-86261. By the end of the 1980’s, the need for a standard fleet saw all remaining class 86/0 fitted with improved suspension and converted to class 86/4, 86036 becoming 86436. These locomotives were now inter-operable with Class 86/2, and thus gave greater operational flexibility. In early 1990’s the majority of the Class 86/4 subclass were dedicated to freight traffic. As a result, they had their electric train heating isolated, and their maximum speed reduced to 75mph. These locomotives were reclassified as class 86/6, with 86436 becoming 86636. After thirty three years service it was withdrawn in March 2000 and broken up during January 2005 by CF Booth Rotherham.
