The heyday of the Class 40 was in the early 1960s, when they were used on express services on the West Coast Main Line, but when more powerful engines became available and the West Coast Main Line was gradually electrified, they were slowly moved to less glamorous routes.
Later in their working life the locomotives were normally to be found pulling heavy freight and passenger trains in northern England and Scotland. Several Class 40s are preserved in the UK.
