Produktinformationen zu „Clayton Type 1 Bo-Bo Diesel-Electric Locomotives - British Railways Class 17 / Locomotive Portfolio Diesel and Electric (ePub)“

This informative, illustrated guide to the British Railways locomotive series covers its full production lifespan, from 1962-1965.

In the early 1960s, the Bo-Bo diesel-electric locomotive known as The Clayton was conceived as the new standard for British Railways, superseding other Type 1 classes. While the early classes suffered from poor driver visibility, the Claytons were highly successful and popular with operating crews. However, the largely untested high-speed, flat Paxman engines proved to be highly problematic. As a result, the Claytons were eventually withdrawn from BR service by December 1971.

Anthony Sayer draws on considerable amounts of archive material to tell the full story of these 'Standard Type 1' locomotives and the issues surrounding their rise and fall. Further sources provide insights into the effort and money expended on the Claytons in a desperate attempt to improve their reliability. Supported by over 280 photographs and diagrams, dramatic new insights into this troubled class have been assembled for both historians and modelers alike.
