BR Blue 33201 stands in the yard at Shackerstone.
The Class 33/2s were specially built to work on the line from Tonbridge to Hastings. The tunnels on that line meant that only trains with a reduced width could safely operate on it. These issues were rectified along with electrification in the mid-1980s.
Locomotive: BRCW Type 3 Class 33/2 Bo-Bo 33201
Location: Shackerstone yard on the Battlefield Line.
