  • The birth of the hydraulics was a direct result of the extent to which the former BR regions existed as separate companies even under the overall banner of nationalisation. For more details please look at www.telerail.co...

    • @andrewdock7288
      @andrewdock7288 5 років тому +5

      The Western were more powerful this locomotive were the equivalent of a Castle steam locomotive the Western's a Pacific steam locomotive 4-6-2 on other BR lines.
      The Western were more attractive and appeared much sleeker in appearance.

    • @russellgxy2905

      Physically the Western’s were bigger, with a C-C wheel layout compared to the B-B of most other hydraulics. At 2,700 HP, they were the most powerful of the Western’s hydraulic fleet, and only the Class 50, 53, and originally 47 could match their power in the Type 4 range

      Warships were built from 1958-1962, while Westerns between 1961 and 1965. Warships were withdrawn by 1972, while Westerns lasted a little longer, the final withdrawal taking place in 1977. 2 Warships made it into preservation (a third, D818 Glory was kept at Swindon Works until 1985 when BR announced the closure of the works. In response, Swindon deliberately cut up D818 in protest.), while 7 Westerns were preserved.
      Westerns featured two MD655 12-cylinder engines supplying 2,700 horsepower when both are active. Warships are powered by two MD650s, resulting in an output of 2,000 horsepower when both are active.
      They were six-axle locos, with a C-C arrangement, whereas Warships had only four- in a B-B arrangement.
