BR Standard 4 No.75079. 45379 is one of the successful “Black Five” 4-6-0 mixed traffic locomotives designed by William Stanier. Built by Armstrong Whitworth of Newcastle in July 1937 and first allocated to Crewe, it moved to Rugby in 1948 at nationalisation, back to Crewe in 1956 and on to Bletchley in 1961. Although Black Fives remained in service until the last day of mainline steam forty years ago, 45379 moved to Willesden in 1964 from where it was withdrawn in the summer of 1965 going to Barry scrap yard later that year. In 1974 it was bought for restoration and taken to the Avon Valley Railway, later to The Great Central Railway. It was bought from there by Mid Hants Railway. The restoration of 45379 was completed in 2010. 45379 had not steamed since 1965
