Class 20 BR FYE Thornaby Blue With Red Solebars And White Cab Roof (Centre Headcode) Diesel Locomotive

Expected Delivery July 2024 (Subject to change at Manufacturer’s Discretion).

Probably the most successful of the BR ‘Pilot Scheme’ designs of the late-1950s, the ’20s’ have given six decades of sterling service and a small number are still earning a living on the network today. Built for lighter goods work, including cross-London trip freights, they also proved to be extremely useful for heavier traffic when used in pairs. Reliable, robust and widely used – a true classic.
