Details

During investigation of excessive wear in the torque convertors of the Class 127 units, M51622 was fitted with test equipment which caused the No.2 cardan shaft to break up near Napsbury on 9 February 1966.

This is thought to be vehicle M51622, it shows the rear passenger saloon above where the cardan shaft would have been. The London Midland Region image (negative DL3838) was taken at Cricklewood depot.
