Locomotive History
In December 1957 British Railways ordered forty five type 3 diesel-electric locomotives from the Birmingham Railway Carriage & Wagon Company for Southern Region duties. They were required as part of the general modernisation resulting from phase I of the Kent Coast Electrification scheme. The number was later increased to a total of ninety eight including twelve special ’slim line’ locomotives for use on the width-restricted Tonbridge-Hastings line. Based on the Birmingham Railway Carriage & Wagon Company type 2’s (class 26/27) of the Scottish Region, the Southern locomotives are powered by a Sulzer 8 cylinder in-line engine of 1550 bhp, designated 8LDA. The main generator and the four traction motors were supplied by Crompton Parkinson. All the Class 33 locomotives were fitted with dual brakes and electrical train heating only when built, which was revolutionary at that time as virtually all other new diesel types were being delivered with steam heating boilers and vacuum brakes. 33001 was originally D6501 and was the second locomotive of the class, It was delivered to Hither Green MPD in February 1960, moving to Eastleigh in October 1965 where it was to spend most of its career. Its final move was to Stewarts Lane in April 1993 from where it was withdrawn in September 1996. Following withdrawal it has been sold for preservation and can currently (January 2020) be found on the South Devon Railway
