Ooh. Question. Class 02's. I have seen books saying they were diesel hydraulic and others have said they were diesel electric. Were there some electric and others hydraulic?
Awesome Mountain Goat I think someone should have written a book just on this subject absolutely fascinating information- thank you

D600 to D604 (no TOPS class)
D800 to D832 (class 42)
D833 to D865 (class 43)

Hydraulic transmission was also used in industrial diesel shunters, notably the Rolls Royce Sentinel 4 and 6 wheel shunters such as Hornby introduced a few years ago.
