Manufacturer description

Delivered in 1989, 91010 was the final one of the original batch of 10 Class 91s to be built. Between 2001 and 2009, the locomotive was named after the Victorian physician, missionary and explorer 'David Livingston', having been refurbished and renumbered to 91110.

In 2012, then operated by East Coast, the locomotive received a special Battle of Britain Memorial Flight livery which was kept in Virgin Trains East Coast operation. 91110 is also known for being the holder of the British speed record for an individual locomotive, achieving 161.7mph on the 17th September 1989.
