Southern Railway diesels
 | This article may be confusing or unclear to readers. (November 2024) |
The Southern Railway built three diesel shunters in 1937, numbered 1–3.[1][2] These became British Rail 15201–15203, and were later classified as British Rail Class D3/12.[3] Twenty-six similar locomotives were built in 1949–1951 after nationalisation. They were numbered 15211–15236, and were later classified as British Rail Class 12.[4][5]
Mainline diesels
[edit]The Southern designed a prototype mainline diesel-electric locomotive. Three were built, although none were finished before nationalisation. They were numbered 10201–10203, and later classified as British Rail Class D16/2.[6][7]
