After investigating several prototypes, BR decided to place an order with Brush Engineering for 20 locomotives during February 1961. The resulting design became the iconic Brush Type 4 Diesel locomotive, practical, versatile design with a very distinctive cab. Powered with a Sulzer engine and initially rated at 2750hp, the locomotive could achieve a top speed of 75mph with a tractive effort of 55000lb. Building commenced in January 1962 and the first locomotive D1500 appeared in late September of the same year with test runs on the London Midland Region and Western Region. The design was a success and BR went on to order a total of 512 with continuous production through to early 1967, forming the largest single class of main-line diesel locomotives in the UK. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring this time and subsequent years, several variations appeared with an increase in speed and tractive effort to 95mph and 62000lb respectively. Originally fitted with four-character train head-codes, these changed to marker lights, with the addition of high-intensity lights and roof aerials in the late 1980s. Other variations involved the fitting of different types of steam heating boiler for early BR coaching stock, later replaced with electric train heating for use with modern rolling stock. The numbering system started with four figures but changed to five with the introduction of the TOPs coding system which saw the locomotives classified as Class 47 Diesels with variations such as 47\/0, 47\/2, 47\/3, 47\/4 and 47\/7. By the end of the 1990s, half of the Class 47 fleet had been withdrawn or scrapped, 33 have been converted into Class 57 locomotives and several have been preserved, including the original D1500, now numbered 47401.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Graham Farish","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33496178819160,"sku":"MRA-372-247","price":339.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0059\/3212\/2200\/files\/12918_PriceBreak_12919.jpg?v=1732241657"},{"product_id":"branchline-32-030ds-class-20-0-headcode-box-20156-br-railfreight-red-stripe","title":"Branchline [OO] 32-030DS Class 20\/0 Headcode Box 20156 BR Railfreight (Red Stripe)","description":"\u003cp\u003eBachmann Branchline (OO Scale)\u003cbr\u003eProduct Code: 32-030DS\u003cbr\u003eClass 20 20156 BR Railfreight Red Stripe\u003cbr\u003eEra: 5 (1957-1966)\u003cbr\u003eDCC Sound Fitted\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuilt: 1957 - 1968\u003cbr\u003eConstructed by: English Electric\u003cbr\u003eDuties: mixed traffic\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHighlights\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Sprung buffers\u003cbr\u003e• Domino head-code boxes\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHistory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe British Railways Board's 1955 modernization plan called for a change to alternative forms of traction and manufacturers were asked to produce trial or initial designs for evaluation. English Electric adapted an existing design based on an export model for a 1000 bhp diesel and 20 were built as a pilot scheme for assessment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe first batch was built in 1957 and the diesels were assigned to work from Devon's Road depot, East London. The design was a success from the start and by 1962 a total of 127 had been built. Following assessment of all the Type 1 diesels, BRB placed a further order increasing the total to 228 by 1968 and the design became the BR standard for 1000 bhp diesel locomotives. With the introduction of the TOPS code system in 1968 the diesels were designated Class 20 and renumbered 20 001 to 20 228. The locomotives were principally designed for freight work but also saw service on summer passenger trains where train heating was not required. The Class 20's worked over the Eastern, London Midland and Scottish regions as well as into Wales and were commonly associated with coal traffic. The only drawback the diesel has is a single end cab, unlike modern designs that have a cab at each end. BR resolved this problem by operating the diesels as pairs, nose to nose, and with the combined power of 2000 bhp they were able to haul the heavier block freight trains.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBR's decision to switch to Type 5 and in particular Class 60 diesels in the late 1980s started a gradual withdrawal of the fleet with just 28 left by 1994.

After investigating several prototypes, BR decided to place an order with Brush Engineering for 20 locomotives during February 1961. The resulting design became the iconic Brush Type 4 Diesel locomotive, practical, versatile design with a very distinctive cab. Powered with a Sulzer engine and initially rated at 2750hp, the locomotive could achieve a top speed of 75mph with a tractive effort of 55000lb. Building commenced in January 1962 and the first locomotive D1500 appeared in late September of the same year with test runs on the London Midland Region and Western Region. The design was a success and BR went on to order a total of 512 with continuous production through to early 1967, forming the largest single class of main-line diesel locomotives in the UK. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring this time and subsequent years, several variations appeared with an increase in speed and tractive effort to 95mph and 62000lb respectively. Originally fitted with four-character train head-codes, these changed to marker lights, with the addition of high-intensity lights and roof aerials in the late 1980s. Other variations involved the fitting of different types of steam heating boiler for early BR coaching stock, later replaced with electric train heating for use with modern rolling stock. The numbering system started with four figures but changed to five with the introduction of the TOPs coding system which saw the locomotives classified as Class 47 Diesels with variations such as 47\/0, 47\/2, 47\/3, 47\/4 and 47\/7. By the end of the 1990s, half of the Class 47 fleet had been withdrawn or scrapped, 33 have been converted into Class 57 locomotives and several have been preserved, including the original D1500, now numbered 47401.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Graham Farish","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39278432518232,"sku":"GFA-371-825C","price":343.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0059\/3212\/2200\/products\/19840_PriceBreak_19841.jpg?v=1666317369"},{"product_id":"branchline-32-486-class-40-diesel-split-headcode-40142-br-blue","title":"Branchline [OO] 32-486 Class 40 Diesel Split Headcode 40142 - BR Blue","description":"\u003cp\u003eBachmann Branchline (OO Scale)\u003cbr\u003eProduct Code: 32-486\u003cbr\u003eClass 40 Diesel Split Headcode 40142 in BR Blue\u003cbr\u003eLength: 285mm\u003cbr\u003eEra: 7 (1971-1982)\u003cbr\u003eDCC Ready: 21-Pin Socket (Sound Ready - Fitted Speaker)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bachmann Branchline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39450001244248,"sku":"BRA-32-486","price":448.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0059\/3212\/2200\/products\/32-486_f557cbe2-4522-4864-9233-b2001874d9bf.jpg?v=1648171641"},{"product_id":"graham-farish-371-389-class-66-7-66789-british-rail-1948-1997-gbrf-br-blue-large-logo","title":"Graham Farish [N] 371-389 Class 66\/7 66789 'British Rail 1948-1997' - GBRf BR Blue (Large Logo)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;\"\u003eGraham Farish (N Scale)\u003cbr\u003eProduct Code: 371-389\u003cbr\u003eClass 66\/7 66789 'British Rail 1948-1997' - GBRf BR Blue (Large Logo)\u003cbr\u003eEra: 9 (1995 onwards)\u003cbr\u003eDCC Ready: 6-pin Socket\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHistory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The Class 66 is a type of six-axle diesel electric freight locomotive developed in part from the Class 59, for use on the railways of the UK.

However, the arrival of more powerful diesels such as Class 47 and Class 55, together with the electrification of the West Coast Main Line, meant that the fleet was gradually relegated to more mundane duties. In later life, the locomotives were mainly to be found hauling heavy freight and passenger trains in the north of England and Scotland. As more new rolling stock was introduced, their passenger work decreased, partly due to their lack of electric train heating (D255 was fitted with electric train heating for a trial period in the mid-1960s) for newer passenger coaches. They lost their last front-line passenger duties ? in Scotland ? in 1980, and the last regular use on passenger trains was on the North Wales Coast Line between Holyhead, Crewe and Manchester, along with regular forays across the Pennines on Liverpool to York and Newcastle services.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eThroughout the early 1980s Class 40s were common performers on relief, day excursion (adex) and holidaymaker services along with deputization duties for electric traction, especially on Sundays between Manchester and Birmingham. This resulted in visits to many distant parts of the network. It would be fair to say that few routes in the London Midland and Eastern regions did not see a Class 40 worked passenger service from time to time. Regular destinations included the seaside resorts of Scarborough, Skegness and Cleethorpes on the Eastern region, with Blackpool and Stranraer being regularly visited on the West Coast.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bachmann Branchline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39670690873432,"sku":"BRA-32-480","price":519.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0059\/3212\/2200\/products\/19685_PriceBreak_19686_dd7c5ed9-3349-4156-bc40-3ae9db775dcb.jpg?v=1648171800"},{"product_id":"branchline-oo-32-529c-class-55-d9010-the-kings-own-scottish-borderer-br-two-tone-green-syp","title":"Branchline [OO] 32-529C Class 55 D9010 'The King's Own Scottish Borderer' BR Two-Tone Green (SYP)","description":"\u003cp\u003eBachmann Branchline (OO Scale)\u003cbr\u003eProduct Code: 32-529C\u003cbr\u003eClass 55 ?Deltic?

Other occasional destinations, although with no officially diagrammed work, included Cleethorpes, Stockport, Liverpool Lime Street and Aberdeen. They could be found on diversionary routes such as Newcastle to Edinburgh via Carlisle and the Waverley Route, and Doncaster to Peterborough via Lincoln and Spalding.

In Continental Europe it is marketed as the EMD Class 66 (JT42CWR). Placing what was termed as \"the biggest British loco order since steam days,\" EWS placed an order for 250 units in May 1996 to be built at the EMD plant in London, Ontario, Canada; the first locomotives were ready in 1998.

The Class 24\/1s were lighter in weight than the 24\/0s, owing to their smaller fuel and water tanks which gave the locomotives wider route availability. Disc headcodes were fitted up to No. D5113 (24113), after which the remaining 24\/1s were built with headcode boxes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExamples were allocated to both the London Midland Region and Eastern Region, and with the Class becoming familiar to crews and staff around London they were used on freight trains over the Metropolitan Widened Lines.

The resulting design became the iconic Brush Type 4 Diesel locomotive, a practical, versatile design with a very distinctive cab. Powered with a Sulzer engine and initially rated at 2,750hp, the locomotive could achieve a top speed of 75mph with a tractive effort of 55,000lb. Building commenced in January 1962 and the first locomotive No. D1500 appeared in late September of the same year with test runs on the London Midland Region and Western Region. The design was a success and BR went on to order a total of 512 with continuous production through to early 1967, forming the largest single class of main-line diesel locomotives in the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring this time and subsequent years, several variations appeared with an increase in speed and tractive effort to 95mph and 62,000lb respectively. Originally fitted with four character train reporting head-codes, these changed to marker lights, with the addition of high intensity lights and roof aerials in the late 1980s. Other variations involved the fitting of different types of steam heating boiler for early BR coaching stock, later replaced with electric train heating for use with modern rolling stock. The numbering system started with four figures but changed to five with the introduction of the TOPS coding system which saw the locomotives classified as Class 47 Diesels with variations such as 47\/0, 47\/2, 47\/3, 47\/4 and 47\/7. By the end of the 1990s, half of the Class 47 fleet had been withdrawn or scrapped, 33 have been converted into Class 57 locomotives and several have been preserved, including the original No. D1500, now numbered 47401.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bachmann Branchline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39970455978072,"sku":"BRA-35-410","price":574.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0059\/3212\/2200\/products\/35-410.png?v=1702333078"},{"product_id":"branchline-oo-35-410sf-class-47-0-d1565-br-two-tone-green-small-yellow-panels-sound-fitted","title":"Branchline [OO] 35-410SF Class 47\/0 D1565 BR Two-Tone Green (Small Yellow Panels) (Sound Fitted)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClass 47\/0 No. D1565 in BR Two-Tone Green livery with Small Yellow Panels\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned from scratch, this all-new model incorporates unrivalled levels of detail and technical features taking the Branchline Class 47 to new heights for British outline diesel locomotives.

The resulting design became the iconic Brush Type 4 Diesel locomotive, a practical, versatile design with a very distinctive cab. Powered with a Sulzer engine and initially rated at 2,750hp, the locomotive could achieve a top speed of 75mph with a tractive effort of 55,000lb. Building commenced in January 1962 and the first locomotive No. D1500 appeared in late September of the same year with test runs on the London Midland Region and Western Region. The design was a success and BR went on to order a total of 512 with continuous production through to early 1967, forming the largest single class of main-line diesel locomotives in the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring this time and subsequent years, several variations appeared with an increase in speed and tractive effort to 95mph and 62,000lb respectively. Originally fitted with four character train reporting head-codes, these changed to marker lights, with the addition of high intensity lights and roof aerials in the late 1980s. Other variations involved the fitting of different types of steam heating boiler for early BR coaching stock, later replaced with electric train heating for use with modern rolling stock. The numbering system started with four figures but changed to five with the introduction of the TOPS coding system which saw the locomotives classified as Class 47 Diesels with variations such as 47\/0, 47\/2, 47\/3, 47\/4 and 47\/7. By the end of the 1990s, half of the Class 47 fleet had been withdrawn or scrapped, 33 have been converted into Class 57 locomotives and several have been preserved, including the original No. D1500, now numbered 47401.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bachmann Branchline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39970456436824,"sku":"BRA-35-410SF","price":709.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0059\/3212\/2200\/products\/35-410SF.png?v=1702333081"},{"product_id":"branchline-oo-35-411-class-47-0-47012-br-blue","title":"Branchline [OO] 35-411 Class 47\/0 47012 BR Blue","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClass 47\/0 No. 47012 in BR Blue\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003elivery.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned from scratch, this all-new model incorporates unrivalled levels of detail and technical features taking the Branchline Class 47 to new heights for British outline diesel locomotives.

The numbering system started with four figures but changed to five with the introduction of the TOPS coding system which saw the locomotives classified as Class 47 Diesels with variations such as 47\/0, 47\/2, 47\/3, 47\/4 and 47\/7. By the end of the 1990s, half of the Class 47 fleet had been withdrawn or scrapped, 33 have been converted into Class 57 locomotives and several have been preserved, including the original No. D1500, now numbered 47401.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bachmann Branchline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39970456469592,"sku":"BRA-35-411","price":574.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0059\/3212\/2200\/products\/35-411.png?v=1702333084"},{"product_id":"branchline-oo-35-411sf-class-47-0-47012-br-blue-sound-fitted","title":"Branchline [OO] 35-411SF Class 47\/0 47012 BR Blue (Sound Fitted)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClass 47\/0 No. 47012 in BR Blue\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003elivery.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned from scratch, this all-new model incorporates unrivalled levels of detail and technical features taking the Branchline Class 47 to new heights for British outline diesel locomotives.

The resulting design became the iconic Brush Type 4 Diesel locomotive, a practical, versatile design with a very distinctive cab. Powered with a Sulzer engine and initially rated at 2,750hp, the locomotive could achieve a top speed of 75mph with a tractive effort of 55,000lb. Building commenced in January 1962 and the first locomotive No. D1500 appeared in late September of the same year with test runs on the London Midland Region and Western Region. The design was a success and BR went on to order a total of 512 with continuous production through to early 1967, forming the largest single class of main-line diesel locomotives in the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring this time and subsequent years, several variations appeared with an increase in speed and tractive effort to 95mph and 62,000lb respectively. Originally fitted with four character train reporting head-codes, these changed to marker lights, with the addition of high intensity lights and roof aerials in the late 1980s. Other variations involved the fitting of different types of steam heating boiler for early BR coaching stock, later replaced with electric train heating for use with modern rolling stock. The numbering system started with four figures but changed to five with the introduction of the TOPS coding system which saw the locomotives classified as Class 47 Diesels with variations such as 47\/0, 47\/2, 47\/3, 47\/4 and 47\/7.

The resulting design became the iconic Brush Type 4 Diesel locomotive, a practical, versatile design with a very distinctive cab. Powered with a Sulzer engine and initially rated at 2,750hp, the locomotive could achieve a top speed of 75mph with a tractive effort of 55,000lb. Building commenced in January 1962 and the first locomotive No. D1500 appeared in late September of the same year with test runs on the London Midland Region and Western Region. The design was a success and BR went on to order a total of 512 with continuous production through to early 1967, forming the largest single class of main-line diesel locomotives in the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring this time and subsequent years, several variations appeared with an increase in speed and tractive effort to 95mph and 62,000lb respectively. Originally fitted with four character train reporting head-codes, these changed to marker lights, with the addition of high intensity lights and roof aerials in the late 1980s. Other variations involved the fitting of different types of steam heating boiler for early BR coaching stock, later replaced with electric train heating for use with modern rolling stock. The numbering system started with four figures but changed to five with the introduction of the TOPS coding system which saw the locomotives classified as Class 47 Diesels with variations such as 47\/0, 47\/2, 47\/3, 47\/4 and 47\/7. By the end of the 1990s, half of the Class 47 fleet had been withdrawn or scrapped, 33 have been converted into Class 57 locomotives and several have been preserved, including the original No. D1500, now numbered 47401.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bachmann Branchline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39970457124952,"sku":"BRA-35-413SF","price":709.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0059\/3212\/2200\/products\/35-413SF.png?v=1702333093"}],"url":"https:\/\/ironhorsehobbies.co.nz\/collections\/diesel-locomotives\/scale_ho-1-87-american-european.oembed?page=3","provider":"Ironhorse Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
