British Rail Class 22
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the electric locomotives given TOPS code 'Class 22' used on freight workings through the Channel Tunnel in the 1990s, see SNCF Class BB 22200.
The British Rail Class 22 or "Baby Warship" was a class of diesel-hydraulic locomotives designed for the Western Region of British Railways and built by the North British Locomotive Company. They were very similar in appearance to the Class 21 diesel-electrics, although shorter in length by almost five feet. The nickname Baby Warship related to the similarity in appearance (and internal equipment) to the British Rail Class D20/2 or Class 41 Warship Class. The Class 22s were numbered D6300-D6357.[8]
