It was a diesel-electric locomotive developed by BrushTraction in the 1960 s. A total of 512 units were produced, the largest number of a class of mainline diesel cars in the UK. Used on British Railways for more than 55 years in passenger and freight services, a considerable number of locomotives are still in use, both on main line and heritage railways, despite the introduction of more modern types of traction. As of July 2024, 76 Class47 locomotives still exist. Acclaimed for its durability and versatility, it is an important symbol in the history of British railways.
