Summary edit

Description
English: LMS Ivatt/English Electric Class "5MT" Class (initially BR Class "D16/1", later LMS/EE Type 3, then Class 39/1) 1,600 hp diesel electric Co-Co No.10001 in BR Green livery with small yellow warning panel. Built in 1948, just after the formation of BR, it was the second British main line diesel loco. It's EE 16SVT engine was one of the most reliable British diesel engines and used in many subsequent designs - the 1,700 hp & 2,000 hp BR(SR)/EE Class 39/2 1-Co-Co-1's of 1950/51 & 54; the 2,000 hp EE Class 40 1Co-Co1's of 1958-62, the 1,700 hp EE Class 37 Co-Co's of 1960-66, and the 2,700 hp EE Class 50 Co-Co's of 1967-68 whilst the BRC&W Class 31 A1A-A1A's were re-engined with the SVT. Its sister, No.10000, was withdrawn in 1963 and 10001 in 1966 though neither were scrapped until 1968. The photo is poor but the only one I have of either of these historic locos. It is seen on shed at Willesden, 04/65. Note brake tender behind which was used in early diesel days on unfitted freights as the diesels did not have the braking capacity of the steam locomotives they replaced. Scanned photograph taken with an Halina 35X Super camera.
