the class's particular association with Scotland. The locomotive left Hull Dairycoates in April, 1992 on the closure of that shed, first moving to the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, running there until its ten-year boiler certificate expired in December 1994. In 1996, the engine left the KWVR, first moving to RAF Binbrook in Lincolnshire, and then to the preserved Great Central Railway at Loughborough in Leicestershire, arriving there on 20 November 1996. Following a full overhaul at Loughborough works, the engine returned to service in August 2003, this time in BR guise as 45305. After suffering buffer beam damage in early 2006, 5305 spent 2006 in use at the GCR before being withdrawn for repairs, which were completed in October 2010. 5305 has now returned to service complete with a new 10 year boiler ticket and renewed mainline certificate. The locomotive is still owned by the Draper Family of Hull, but is now looked after by the 5305 Locomotive Association, the successor to the Humberside Locomotive Preservation Group, and while the engine does visit other heritage railways when not out on the mainline, including visits back to the KWVR in 2013 and 2014, and visits to the North Norfolk Railway in September 2011 and 2014, the GCR remains its heritage railway base. Fame in preservation 2013 marked the 45th anniversary since the end of steam on British Railways in 1968, and because Aug 11 was on a Sunday it was decided for a re-run to take place to mark 45 years since the end of steam. 45305 was booked to work the original train in 1968 but was failed the night before the trip due to a collapsed firebox brickarch, so allowing her to work the anniversary run 2013 allowed the ghost of 1968 to finally be put to rest. There was also a change of routing as the original route through Newton-le-Willows from Liverpool to Manchester was closed for engineering works so the tour was diverted down the line to Piccadilly via Warrington Central which had not seen steam traction since 1968. 45305 worked from Liverpool to Longsight and then worked back from Longsight to Liverpool in the evening. Other locos that worked the tour included BR Standard Class 7 70013 Oliver Cromwell which worked from Longsight to Carlisle via Bolton, Farington & Settle while LMS Black 5 4-6-0's Nos. 45231 ansd 44932 double headed the train from Carlisle
