[edit] Type 1 Locomotives

  • Class 18 - A proposed new Type 1 locomotive proposed in the mid 1980s. No prototype model was ever produced.

[edit] Type 3 Locomotives

  • Class 38 - Projected classification for new generation of Type 3 freight locomotives in the 1980s. The Class 38 was dropped in favour of the Class 60.

[edit] Type 4 Locomotives

  • Class 41 - The second use of Class 41 was for a proposed class of Class 60 locomotives with 2,500hp engines in the early 1990s.
  • Class 48 - The second use of Class 48 was for a new class of freight locomotive in the mid 1980s.

[edit] Type 5 Locomotives

  • Class 51 - Projected classification for the proposed "Super Deltic" locomotive intended as a follow on from the Class 50 and Class 55.
  • Class 62 - Projected classification for proposed Type 5 coal train locomotives in the early 1990s.
  • Class 65 - Projected classification for proposed 4,000hp freight working locomotive intended for liner trains.

[edit] Electro-Diesel Locomotives

  • Class 75 - Spare classification for projected "super electro-diesel" follow on from Class 73 and Class 74.
