D0226 & D0227

**D0226** and **D0227** were two prototype diesel shunting locomotives built in 1956 by English Electric at its Vulcan Foundry in Newton-le-Willows to demonstrate its wares to British Railways. They originally carried numbers D226 and D227, their Vulcan Foundry works numbers, but these were amended in August 1959 to avoid clashing with the numbers of new Class 40 locomotives.

They were both of 0-6-0 wheel arrangement and were fitted with English Electric 6RKT engines of 500 hp. They were painted black with an orange stripe along the middle of the bodyside, which turned into a 'V' at the nose end. The major difference between the two locomotives was that D0226 had diesel-electric transmission and D0227 had diesel-hydraulic transmission.

BR tested both locomotives at its Stratford depot in East London. D0226 has been preserved at the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, but D0227 was scrapped.
William Batson

**William "Billy" Batson** aka Captain Shazam was a superhero who was active in New York City.

## History

William Batson was born to Mr. and Ms. Batson. After his parents died in a car crash, he was adopted by his "wicked uncle", who got rid of him in order to posses the money his father has willed to Billy. Since then, Billy worked as a newsboy.

In the February of 1940, Billy was brought to an old wizard named "Shazam", who was tired of his job, and transfered his powers to Billy, making him the new **Captain Marvel**.
Class 22

The British Rail **Class 22** or "Baby Warship" was a class of Type 2 diesel-hydraulic locomotives designed for the Western Region of British Railways and built by the North British Locomotive Company. They were very similar in appearance to the Class 21 diesel-electrics. The nickname *Baby Warship* related to the similarity in appearance (and internal equipment) to the British Rail Class D20/2 or Class 41 *Warship Class*. The Class 22s were numbered D6300-D6357.

Class 74

**British Rail Class 74** was an electro-diesel locomotive that operated on the Southern Region of British Railways, rebuilt from redundant Class 71 locomotives in the late 1960s. An electro-diesel locomotive is one that can operate either from an electrical supply, such as overhead catenary or (in this case) an energised third rail, or from an onboard diesel engine. All the locomotives were withdrawn between June 1976 and December 1977; they were scrapped between 1977 and 1981.

Unbuilt Locomotive Classes

There have been a number of TOPS class numbers assigned to proposed locomotives that have not been built for one reason or another.

## Type 1

* Class 18 - A proposed new Type 1 locomotive proposed in the mid 1980s. A 1988 proposal was for a 6-wheeled 800 hp locomotive with a maximum speed of 50 mph, similar in concept to class 14 . No prototype was constructed.

## Type 3

* Class 38 - Projected classification for new generation of Type 3 freight locomotives in the 1980s. The Class 38 was dropped in favour of the Class 60.

## Type 4

* Class 41 - The third use of Class 41 was for a proposed class of Class 60 locomotives with 2,500 hp engines in the early 1990s.
* Class 48 - The second use of Class 48 was for a new class of freight locomotive in the mid 1980s.

## Type 5

* Class 51 - Projected classification for the proposed "Super Deltic" locomotive intended as a follow on from the Class 50 and Class 55.
* Class 62 - Projected classification for proposed Type 5 coal train locomotives in the early 1990s. (LAter became the Class 66)
* Class 65 - Projected classification for proposed 4,000 hp freight working locomotive intended for liner trains.

## DC Locomotives

* Class 75 - Spare classification for projected "super electro-diesel" follow on from Class 73 and Class 74.

## AC Locomotives

* Class 88 - The first use of Class 88 was for a proposed electric version of the Class 58, powered through 25 kV AC from overhead wire.
* Class 93 - Proposed electric locomotive for use on the West Coast Main Line as part of the InterCity 250 project. This would have been simlar to the Class 91 and there set up.

Reyne Mist

Reyne Qin Mist is the princess of the East Mist Communal Country and a descendant of Karwenz Mist. She has made a deal with Karwenz which gives her power but allows Karwenz to occasionally possess her.

## Appearance

According to Roland, Reyne's face was 90% similar to his. If not for the bit of femininity between her eyebrows instead of masculinity, as well as her sharper face and her slightly thinner eyebrows, they would be identical.

Taking advantage of her strikingly similar appearance to Roland, Reyne attempted to gain her subject's support by dressing up similar to him during his heroic age. She imitated his hairstyle and wore silver female plate mail that was a feminine version of Roland's Thorn Battle Armor.

## History

Her father, Kashgar Mist, died during a beastmen incursion which left her as the only one left to lead the Mist Country. She was a young girl at this time but she managed to lead the army to drive back the Beastmen. (It was revealed by Karwenz later on that she only managed to accomplish this because of his help). When Reyne was 14 years old, she was invited over to the Auland Empire, but once she got there she was told that the East Mist Communal Country must pledge allegiance to the Auland Empire and become a subordinate state. Since East Mist was small and weak, they could not refuse. Fortunately, Roland arrived in time to save her from marrying a royal knight by impersonating her. Reyne was also able to become an Aurora Knight during this time.

Once Reyne returned back to East Mist, she left Roland in charge. Roland used the System to transfer exp to Reyne to allow her to level up faster. However, Reyne still felt she wasn't strong enough and during the beastmen invasion she accepted a contract from Karwenz. She was then able to increase in strength by a massive amount. After the battle, Karwenz took control of Reyne's body. When Reyne finally woke up, she found herself in the largest red light district in the Bardi Empire. During this time, she received the wondrous title of "King of Ten Thousand Flowers".

During the invasion of the Earth Elemental Plane, Reyne was distressed by how weak she was,so she used the power of Chaos to turn Emordilican's children into Divine Sins under her control.

## Personality

Prior to meeting Roland, Reyne was a pure innocent girl. But her exposure to Roland and his "King of Gentlemen" title slowly caused her to become stranger and stranger. Reyne became increasingly shameless and deviant. Reyne has also started slacking off instead of doing work.

Reyne seeks Roland's approval which was the cause of her trying to get stronger, leading to her accepting a contract with Karwenz. Reyne is unintelligent so she relies mostly on strength. Reyne also feels attraction toward Roland, despite the fact that he is her great great great ... great granduncle.
Class 76

The British Rail **Class 76**, also known as **Class EM1** (*Electric Mixed-Traffic 1*), is a class of 1.5kV DC, Bo+Bo electric locomotive designed for use on the now-closed Woodhead Line in Northern England.

Class 92

The British Rail **Class 92** is a dual-voltage electric locomotive which can run on 25 kV AC from overhead wires or 750 V DC from a third rail. It was designed specifically to operate services through the Channel Tunnel between Britain and France. Eurotunnel indicates the Class 92 locomotive as the reference for other locomotives which railway undertakings might want to get certified for usage in the Channel tunnel.

Locomotives of this type are operated by GB Railfreight/Europorte 2 and DB Cargo UK. In France, a number were also owned and operated by SNCF; these were classified as **CC 92000** on French railways.

The class 92 was intended as a mixed traffic locomotive for hauling both international freight trains and the ill-fated and never introduced *Nightstar* passenger sleeper trains though the Channel Tunnel. Since introduction the fleet was exclusively allocated to freight, however, in March 2015 six locomotives owned by GB Railfreight have begun passenger operations hauling the Caledonian Sleeper on behalf of Serco between London and Scotland, marking the very first use of the class in commercial passenger service.

Although never operated by British Rail, Most of the Class 92s are in BR Two Tone Gray with Double Arrows, as if they where still ran by BR.

## Trivia

The last British Rail Train was hauled by 92 003 'Beethoven' which ran on the 21st of November 1998. It was the 23:15 Dollands Moor to Wembley, the 4M63.

18000

**British Rail 18000** was a prototype mainline gas turbine-electric locomotive built for British Railways in 1949 by Brown, Boveri & Cie. It had, however, been ordered by the Great Western Railway in 1946, but construction was delayed. It spent its working life on the Western Region of British Railways, operating express passenger services from Paddington station, London.
Class 28

The British Rail **Class 28** (Metro-Vick Type 2) diesel locomotives, or 'Metrovicks' as they were popularly known, were built as part of the British Railways 1955 Modernisation Plan. The locomotives had a Co-Bo wheel arrangement (a 6-wheel bogie at one end, a 4-wheel bogie at the other) – unique in British Railways practice and uncommon in other countries, although Japan also used some C-B diesel hydraulics. This made maintenance more complicated. The maximum tractive effort of 50,000 lbf (220 kN) was unusually high for a Type 2 locomotive but, as there were five (not four) driving axles, the risk of wheelslip was minimal.

## Preservation

A single locomotive, D5705, survived by historical accident, being renumbered S15705 and used from December 1968 by the Research Division for its Tribology Test train. It was superseded by a Class 24, and was used as carriage heating unit TDB968006 (based at Bath Road Depot, Bristol) before being preserved in 1980. It is currently on the East Lancashire Railway. The Class 15 Preservation Society has signed an agreement with the owners of D5705 to become its custodians during its restoration and operation for the next ten years, although funding will remain separate.

Class 13

The British Rail **Class 13** was a type of diesel-electric shunting locomotive. The type was designed in 1965 because of the need to provide more powerful shunters for the Tinsley Marshalling Yard. Because of Tinsley's status as a hump yard, it was not possible to use a single locomotive owing to the risk of grounding. So, to achieve the required power, a pair of Class 08 shunters were permanently coupled in 'master and slave' formation, with the slave unit having had its cab removed. Both units were then ballasted to improve traction. Initially coupled cab-to-cab, it was found more practical to couple master nose to slave cab. Although when necessary, relief was formed of a class 47 fitted with Slow Speed Control.

Class 37

The British Rail **Class 37** is a diesel-electric locomotive. Also known as the **English Electric Type 3**, the Class was ordered as part of the British Rail modernisation plan. They were numbered in two series, D6600-D6608 and D6700-D6999.
The Class 37 became a familiar sight on many parts of the British Rail network, in particular forming the main motive power for Inter-City services in East Anglia and within Scotland. They also performed well on secondary and inter-regional services for many years. The Class 37s are known to some railway enthusiasts as "Tractors", a nickname due to the agricultural sound of the diesel engine of the locomotive.

Class 44

The British Rail **Class 44** or **Sulzer Type 4** diesel locomotives were built by British Railways' Derby Works between 1959 and 1960. They were named after British mountains, and consequently nicknamed **Peaks**.

In part inspired by LMS prototypes 10000 and 10001, and by Southern Railway 10201-10203, the Class 44 diesels were some of the first big diesels commissioned for the British Rail modernisation project and were the precursors to the Class 45 and Class 46 locomotives of similar design.
Class 82

The British Rail **Class 82** electric locomotives were built by Beyer, Peacock and Company between 1960 and 1962, as part of the West Coast Main Line electrification. It was first labled as the **AL2.**

Class 20

The British Rail (BR) **Class 20**, otherwise known as an English Electric **Type 1**, is a class of diesel-electric locomotive. In total, 228 locomotives in the class were built by English Electric between 1957 and 1968, the large number being in part because of the failure of other early designs in the same power range to provide reliable locomotives.

The locomotives were originally numbered D8000–D8199 and D8300–D8327. They are known by railway enthusiasts as "Choppers", a name derived from the distinctive beat that the engine produces when under load which resembles the sound of a helicopter.

## Operations

As of 2017 there were 25 still active. They are:

Derby Research Center

The **Railway Technical Centre** (RTC) in London Road, Derby, England, was built by the British Railways Board in the early 1960s to be its technical headquarters. British Rail was able to announce that "The Railway Technical Centre at Derby is the largest railway research complex in the world."

The RTC centralised most of the technical services provided by the regional Chief Mechanical & Electrical Engineers (CM&EE) to form the Department of Mechanical & Electrical Engineering (DM&EE). In addition, it housed the newly formed British Rail Research Division which reported directly to the Board. The latter is well known for its work on the experimental Advanced Passenger Train (APT-E). At that early stage this was a concept vehicle, and in time the DM&EE applied the new knowledge to existing practice in the design of the High Speed Train (HST), the later prototype APT-P and other high-speed vehicles.

## Locomotives

Several locomotives were based out of RTC, for example:
Type 1s

The Type 1 locomotives ranged from the class 14 'Teddy Bear' up to the Class 20. They had a horsepower between 800hp and 1000hp. Only the Class 20s are in mainline usage (With HNRC and DRS), although during the early 2000s a Class 14 was entered under the Class 01/5 series for work on the Channel Tunnel Rail Link.
Class 31

The British Rail **Class 31** diesel locomotives, also known as the **Brush Type 2** and originally as **Class 30**, were built by Brush Traction from 1957-62. They were numbered in two series, D5500-D5699 and D5800-D5862.

Class 01/5

In winter 2007, some 55 small diesel locomotives were operated under the **Class 015xx** TOPS group. These are not technically part of the Class 01 but are a collection of privet owner and ex-BR Classes which are certified by Network Rail to operate over small sections of the National Rail Network.

The largest user of the **Class 01/5s** are the MoD, having 17 examples at around 6 locations across the UK.

Other operators include:Siemens, T J Thompson, Cleveland Potash, Barton Dock, Croft Quarry, Victa Railfreight, Lafarge Aggregates and Imerys, among others.

Some ex-BR Locomotives, such as the Class 11 and Class 14, are allocated numbers in the Class 10/5 range, these come from there industrial usage. There operation over the Network is very restricted.

Deltic Prototypes

English Electric gave two prototypes to BR, with the Napier Deltic Engines which went into the Class 23 and Class 55.

## DP1

**English Electric DP1**, commonly known as ***Deltic***, was a prototype 3,300 hp (2,500 kW) demonstrator locomotive employing two Napier Deltic engines, built by English Electric in 1955.

The high power of the locomotive at an acceptably low axleload resulted in 22 similar locomotives being ordered by British Railways for use on East Coast Main Line express passenger services; the serial production of which became the  Class 55.

DP1 was initaly preserved by the Science Museum, but in October 1993 it was moved to the National Railway Museum.

## DP2

The DP2 was the second Deltic Prototype sent to British Rail, but unlike DP1, it was scrapped.

On 31 July 1967 it was involved in a serious accident at Thirsk, colliding at speed with the de-railed Cliffe to Uddingston cement train. DP2 sustained severe front and left hand side damage, and was taken to York shed where it remained sheeted over. The damage proved to be so great that it was considered uneconomical to repair. It was withdrawn from BR service in September 1967 and moved to the Vulcan Foundry where it was stored until it was dismantled in 1968, its reusable parts being provided to the Class 50 pool of spares. Its engine initially went to D417/50 017 'Royal Oak', but ended its working days in 50 037.

Class 99

The British Rail **Class 99** was a fleet of ferries or train ferries, most of which were owned by Sealink, that carried rail vehicles between Britain and mainland Europe. When British Rail implemented the TOPS system for managing their operating stock, these ships were incorporated into the system in order to circumvent some of the restrictions of the application software. This allowed them to be counted as locomotives while carrying railway vehicles in the same way as a normal locomotive would haul a train.

## Details

There were fifteen BR Class 99s, used for carrying road and rail vehicles from Britain to the continent (road only vehicles did not receive TOPS numbers). They were of various ages and origins, but all carried the BR double arrow logo on their red funnels. This was generally set up so that the upper arrow pointed towards the bow, and so was reversed on the port side of the ship. The hull was painted blue, with "Sealink" written in large grey letters between the waterline and the deck. A grey stripe was painted on some around parts of the top of the hull, with the main body of the ship being grey or white. Unlike other non-steam locomotives with TOPS numbers, no yellow warning panels were provided. Names were painted on the bow and stern but the TOPS numbers were not visibly carried.

The number 99001 was reused for *Nord Pas-de-Calais*.

The table shows the numbers allocated:

 VF
 TF
 C

There were also a number of other Sealink vessels which did not carry rail vehicles and so did not receive TOPS numbers.

While in traffic several vessels were involved in various incidents. *Vortigern* grounded on the approach to Oostende in 1982. *Sealink Vanguard* collided with *European Gateway* on the approach to Harwich, also in 1982, causing serious damage to the latter vessel, which nearly sank altogether. This was the most serious accident that a Class 99 was involved in while working for Sealink, resulting in six fatalities.

Class 10

The **British Rail Class 10** diesel locomotive was a variation on the Class 08 diesel-electric shunter in which a Blackstone diesel engine was fitted instead of one made by the English Electric company. Traction motors were by the General Electric Company plc (GEC); the class D3/5 were similar, but had British Thomson-Houston (BTH) traction motors

The locomotives were built at the BR Works in Darlington and Doncaster over the period 1955–1962. At first they were classified **D3/4**, then **3/1C** before becoming **Class 10** under TOPS

Type 3s

The Type 3 locomotives ranged from the class 33 up to the Class 37. They have horsepower between 1500hp and 1999hp. Only the Class 37 are in regular mainline use (With Network Rail, DRS, Colas Rail, West Coast Railway Company, Europhoenix and Rail Oparations Group).

 Class 35 | B-B
 Class 37 | Co-Co
 Class 38 | Never Built
 DHP1 | B-B
Class 48

The British Rail **Class 48** was a diesel locomotive class which consisted of five examples, built at Brush Falcon Works in Loughborough and delivered between September 1965 and July 1966. They were part of the British Rail Class 47 order, but differed from their classmates by being fitted with a Sulzer V12 12LVA24 power unit producing 2,650 bhp (1,976 kW), as opposed to the standard 12LDA28C twin-bank twelve-cylinder unit of the remaining fleet. They where clasified under the Type 4.

Class 53

British Rail assigned **Class 53** to the single Brush Traction-built prototype locomotive **Falcon**. While not in any sense a failure, the design was the victim of advances in locomotive technology (specifically, the power obtainable from single low-speed diesel engines) and was never duplicated. It was of the Type 4 classification and was simlar to the Class 47 (and Class 48 and Class 57) having been built and designed by Brush Traction.

Class 05

Built by the Hunslet Engine Company between 1955 and 1961, the **Class 05**, this smaller class of just 69 locomotives would see service largely on the Eastern and Scottish Regions of British Railways. The first two batches were delivered as 11136 - 11143 (later D2550 - D2557) and 11161 - 11176 (later D2558 - D2573). Subsequent locomotives were delivered as D2574 - D2618.

One class member, D2554, has spent most of its' life on the Isle of Wight and was the only Class 05 to receive a TOPS number, 05001 upon its transfhere to the Island in 1966. As it was deened suitable for use on the Island, it was retained in working order and transphered to departmental stock in 1981, becoming 97803 where it would operate for a further four years before it was withdrawn and sold to the Isle of Wight Steam Railway, where it still servives. Three other class members, D2578, D2587 and D2595 are also preserved.

Unlike the Class 08 diesel-electric shunters, the Class 05 locomotives have a diesel-mechanical setup, whereby power from the 204hp Gardner 8-cylinder engine is transphered to a Hunslet 4-speed gearbox and revercing gearbox. Power is applied to the wheels via a jackshaft and coupling rods.

In 1976 only 05 001 (D2554) was allocated, it being allocated to Ryde St Johns Road (RY) on the Isle of Wight. Although was originally brought to the Island in January 167 to assist the Electrification of the Island Line.

Class 09

The British Rail **Class 09** is a class of 0-6-0 diesel locomotive designed primarily for shunting and also short distance freight trips along branch lines.

The 26 locos are similar to the Class 08 shunting locomotives but have different gearing, giving a top speed of 27.5 mph (44 km/h) at the expense of a lower tractive effort. They were introduced from 1959 to 1962 and latterly operated in the Southern Region of British Railways, although some of the class were originally allocated to depots in the Midlands and North before transferring south. Further locomotives were converted from Class 08 in 1992 and, following this and privatisation in 1997, the class has been distributed much further afield.

## Details

Class 04

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. However, the first locomotive to be built to the design was actually DS1173, in 1948, which served as a departmental shunter at Hither Greendepot, before being transferred to the capital stock list as D2341 in 1967. The Class 04 locomotives were supplied by the Drewry Car Co., which at the time (and for most of its existence) had no manufacturing capability. Drewry sub-contracted the construction work to two builders both of whom built other locomotives under the same arrangement. Early locomotives (including DS1173) were built by Vulcan Foundry and later examples were built by Robert Stephenson and Hawthorns.

In 1976 there were no class 04s allocated.

As of 2017, D2216, D2232, D2289 and D2295 had been exported to Italy.

Class 67

The **Class 67** locomotives are a class of Bo-Bo diesel electric mainline locomotives which were built for the English Welsh & Scottish Railway (EWS) between 1999 and 2000 by Alstom at Meinfesa in Valencia, Spain with drive components (engine, generator and traction motors) from General Motors' Electro-Motive Division.

EMD's designation for this locomotive type is JT42HW-HS. In the UK they where classified as Type 5s.

## Incidents

A serious crash occurred with **67002** at Lawrence Hill (Bristol) on 1 November 2000, when a Royal Mail train passed two red signals and ran into the back of a coal train at around 3:30am. The mail train, hauled by **67002** "Special Delivery" with **67012** at the rear, was travelling at 50 mph when the incident occurred. The locomotive climbed over the back of the coal train, coming to rest 40 yards (37m) later on top of a coal wagon and against the A420 Church Road bridge. The driver of the mail train suffered a broken arm and cuts to the face and chest, but there were no other injuries. The incident was initially suspected to be caused by faulty brakes, but was later found to be caused by misunderstanding and incorrect use of the locomotive's brake pipe isolation valve by railway staff.

Class 41 (ii)

The British Rail **Class 41** was the original classification for the power cars of the prototype High Speed Train (HST) of 1972. The HST was later re-classified as a diesel-electric multiple unit, and the whole set became Class 252. They were of Bo-Bo wheel arrangement.

Two power cars were built, 41001 and 41002. After the Class 252 re-classification these were renumbered into the carriage numbering range as 43000 and 43001.

As of 2015 **41001** is operational and based at Ruddington Park MPD, on the Great Central Railway (Nottingham) as part of the National Collection owned by the National Railway Museum (NRM) in York. It is registered as **43000** to allow for positioning moves via the Network Rail network. In December 1990, the second power car 41002 was scrapped at C F Booth, Rotherham. Both were allocated to Headquarters (HQ).

Due to the horsepower, the Class 41s where classified as Type 4s.

«*Snonia*» es la deformación de la palabra «*Senonia*» la cual a su vez se refiere a la antigua región donde viven los Senones, una de las tribus fundadoras del Reino.
D2/11

The British Rail Class **D2/11** was a British class of locomotive designed in 1958 by Brush Traction Ltd and Beyer Peacock, which co-operated to produce five prototype diesel-electric shunting locomotives of 0-4-0 wheel arrangement. They were intended to demonstrate a new generation of diesel shunters for industrial and mainline use. Two were loaned to British Railways for trials and one, number D2999, was subsequently purchased by BR. However, no large scale orders resulted from these demonstrators.

Similar locomotives were built for industrial use, notably for steelworks in South Wales and Yorkshire. These were built by Brush Traction working with Bagnall. An example is preserved on the Middleton Railway.
