Great when they got allocated to Longsight and Edge Hill/Allerton (can’t remember which);you’d appreciate them hauling the Trans-Pennine and Manchester-Holyhead services. Vastly underrated and extremely versatile.
One of the truly successful designs to come out of the first generation of diesel's not to powerful, infact they were quite heavy for what they were, but generally simple with an engine not to stressed and with the ability to double and even triple head ,were quite useful! BR certainly got their moneys worth out of the good old 31!
They look and sound great though better than the shite now
Just gota luv a ped!!! ❤
Overweight and underpowered
I argree but sound great !!
still good locos
Well considering they had an extra set of wheels per bogie than any of the other type 2s they are guna weigh more , reminded that the class 21, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27 ,28 and 29 had long been cut up or were in mass scrapping meant that they can't have been that poor looking at it?.... [ the class 24 and 25 were decent kit ] and 31s lasted from the 60s up until the 2000s! The most infamous British v8, the rover v8 was classed as awful yet kept goin like the class 31 which proved it wasn't as much of a failure when looked at from a different perspective, freight, passenger, parcel, flasks, they did em all with decent reliability once re engined and even on the mirrlees engines.
