With just ten of the 49 examples having been scrapped, the Class 73 electro-diesels must rank among the most successful of BR main line locomotive classes. Built for BR in 1962, they were unique in that they were dual-powered, producing 1,600hp when working from SR 750V DC third-rail electrified lines and 600hp from an on-board diesel engine
and generator.
