British Rail Class 41 (HST)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The British Rail Class 41 was the original classification for the power cars of the prototype High Speed Train. However, the train was later re-classified as a diesel-electric multiple unit, and the whole set became Class 252. They were of Bo-Bo wheel arrangement.
Two power cars were built, 41001 and 41002. After the Class 252 re-classification these were renamed to 43000 and 43001.
Today 41001 is preserved in the National Railway Museum in York, while 41002 was scrapped at CF Booth Rotherham in 12/90 Both where allocated to Headquarters (HQ).
