Description
The first English Electric Type 1 design, now known as the Class 20s, made its appearance in June 1957. Characterised by their distinctive 'chopper' engine sound, these single-cabbed locomotives earned a reputation for rugged reliability due to their simplicity and use of tried and tested components. This book explores the operations of the Class 20s since their introduction, covering their varied workings and duties, regional use, and railtour operations. It also delves into the technical aspects and specifications of these locomotives, including liveries and detailing. With over 200 pages of detailed information, British Rail Class 20 Locomotives is a comprehensive guide for anyone interested in the history and operation of these iconic locomotives.
