There was then a gap in construction before Derby resumed building its remaining 100 engines. 42 were built at Doncaster, starting in August 1955 and finishing in May 1957, with Derby's last engine following a month later. Thirty engines, numbers 73125 to 73154, were built with Caprotti valve gear and poppet valves.
