In 1960 there were still locomotives as well at Hither Green - two C class 0-6-0's are visible. (See also TQ3974&#160;: BR Standard 350 hp 0-6-0 Diesel-electric shunter at Hither Green Depot and TQ3974&#160;: Ex-SR 0-6-0 Diesel-electric shunter at Hither Green Locomotive Depot).
context_page_description: The British Rail Class 04 was a 0-6-0 diesel-mechanical shunting locomotive class, built between 1952 and 1962 and was the basis for the later Class 03 built in the British Railways workshops.
context_section_description: The prototype (of 1947) was numbered DS1173 in departmental service. The first 60 production units (from 1952) were numbered in the sequences 11100–11103, 11105–11115, 11121–11135, 11149–11160, and 11212–11229.
  From 1957, new production units received numbers in the D-prefix ("Pre-TOPS") numbering series. All existing units were renumbered in the same series, sequentially from D2200 to D2259, with the new production units continuing from D2260 to D2340. Finally, the prototype locomotive left departmental service and entered the service fleet, being re-numbered as D2341; thus the oldest example of the class was allocated the last number in the numbering sequence.
