It was 20 0-4-0 diesel hydraulic shunting locomotives, built by the Yorkshire Engine Company between 1960 and 1961. Designed for shunts in areas with limited loading limits and curves, such as docks. It has a distinctive rear cab door and a balustraded terrace, which is very rare for British railway locomotives. It is known for its short wheelbase, its ability to adapt to sharp turning tracks, and even the use of traditional wagon turntables. It was originally used for dockside shunting and goods yard operations in the north of England, and due to its small size, it played a role in places that many locomotives could not reach. A total of 20 Type 02 trains were produced.
