British Railways 0-6-0 DE Shunter D4092 (BR Class 10)

Preserved British Railways 0-6-0 'Gronk' diesel electric shunter D4092 (British Rail Class 10) at Barrow Hill Railway Centre in Derbyshire (UK).

 

D4092 was built at Darlington Works in 1962 and withdrawn from BR service in September 1968.

 

The Class 10 (08/09/11) shunter 0-6-0 design was based on the LMS Class D3/7 shunter of 1939 and LMS 12033 shunter series for the war department in early 1945, so it's safe to assume the basic body design you see here dates from the late 1930s.
