Nameplate, 55 017, 17.05 London King's Cross-Hull (1D04), Hull station 
 The nameplate attached to the side of 55017 as it stands at Hull Paragon having arrived with the 17.05 service from King's Cross. Unsurprisingly, the locomotive was named with a ceremony at Durham station on 29.10.63. This name was previously carried by LNER 'V2' No. 60964. Almost exactly a month after this photograph was taken 55017 was involved in a serious collision at Finsbury Park that almost made it the fourth member of the class to be withdrawn. However, extensive repairs to its number one end were authorised that saw a team at Doncaster make a new one from scratch.
