Does anyone know why the G2/G2a class is called Super D? 82.21.65.109 10:14, 25 March 2007 (UTC) Apparently, this is a contraction of "Superheated Duck Eight", a West Midlands nickname for the engine. 82.21.65.109 14:39, 25 March 2007 (UTC) Why Duck? They do have very distinctive wheels, which look a bit like webbed feet. Is this the reason? 82.21.65.109 16:21, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
