	Encyclopedia: British Rail class 86
		The British Rail Class 86 is the standard electric locomotive built during the 1960s, developed as a result of testing with the earlier Classes 81, 82, 83, 84 and 85.
		It was reclassified as Class 86/5 and renumbered to 86501.
		However, the class does still have a future with the company, and in the long-term, Freightliner plans to retain a core fleet of 14 locomotives in service until at least 2009, ensuring the class is in service well over 40 years after first being introduced.

		The enclosures displaced many tenant farmers from their lands and produced a class of wandering, unemployed “sturdy beggars.” The Elizabethan poor laws were an attempt to deal with this problem.
		Domestically the long ministry of Sir Robert Walpole (1721–42), during the reigns of George I and George II, was a period of relative stability that saw the beginnings of the development of the cabinet as the chief executive organ of government.
		The Conservative governments of Churchill and his successor, Anthony Eden (1955), were beset by numerous difficulties in foreign affairs, including the nationalization (1951) of British petroleum fields and refineries in Iran, the Mau Mau uprising in Kenya (1952–56), turmoil in Cyprus (1954–59), and the problem of apartheid in South Africa.

	British Rail Class 53 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		British Rail assigned Class 53 to the single Brush Traction-built prototype locomotive Falcon.
		Returning to British Railways in 1963, Falcon spent six months working out of Sheffield on both passenger and freight diagramss, after which its testing was completed.
		In 1970, British Rail approached Brush Traction with a proposal to buy the (by now practically worthless) locomotive for its scrap value, which was accepted by the builder; the loco underwent a rebuild at BREL Swindon, emerging in corporate Rail Blue with full yellow ends and bearing the new number D1200.

	British Rail Class 15 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This class was troubled by poor reliability and was scrapped relatively early (all withdrawn by March 1971).
		Almost alarmingly, for their several problems, these locos were arguably the second most successful Type 1s after the British Rail Class 20s - the other two fleets, British Rail Class 16 and British Rail Class 17, were worse.
		Only one Class 15 survives in preservation, having finished its life on carriage heating duties with three classmates.

	Encyclopedia: British Rail Class 98
		TOPS Class 98 has been used to cover all steam locomotives used on the mainline in Britain, but also has a particular usage for the three Vale of Rheidol 2_6_2T locomotives that remained in the ownership of British Rail after the end of mainline steam traction in August 1968.
		These three steam locomotives were the only ones to survive in British Rail's ownership after the end of mainline steam traction in August 1968.
		Under TOPS they were allocated Class 98 and were nominally numbered 98007-98009, but these numbers were never actually carried on the locomotives.

	Guardian \| Rail company ready to abolish first class seating
		Having already replaced approximately 40% of its rolling stock with new, standard class only trains, the company is now considering the abolition of first class when the 10-year-old trains that make up the remainder of its stock are refurbished.
		One first class passenger on the 12.57 to Aylesbury said he had found possession of a first class ticket no longer meant there would be a first class section on the train that turned up.
		Another first class ticket holder, Keith Brown, said he bought first class tickets for all his employees travelling on business and would be sorry to see it abolished.

		The British Rail Class 43 diesel-hydraulic locomotives were built by the North British Locomotive Company from 1960-1962.
		Like most NBL designs, these locomotives were not very successful, and were withdrawn before their Class 42 sisters, themselves doomed to a short life because of the decision to standardise on diesel-electric transmission for mainline locomotives.

	rolling stock : class 57
		Class 66 delivery has displaced them from much of the high speed work and issues with components not replaced in the rebuild programme have arisen.
		After the original ETS Class 57 - 57601 - had undergone successful proving trials with First Great Western, thoughts turned to the replacement of the Virgin West Coast and First GW Class 47 locomotives used for 'Thunderbird' and 'sleeper' work respectively.
		Converted from a mixture of Class 47/8 locomotives being returned by Virgin Cross Country and from stored Class 47s formerly used by Freightliner, the original total of 12 locomotives was later upped to 16 with an additional 4 being needed to finally eliminate Class 47s from standby duty on the West Coast.

		The book is particularly good at explaining the differences between similar locomotive classes such as the original diesel-hydraulic classes 41, 42 and 43 or NBL types 21/29 and 22.
		For example, the wheel arrangements of English Electric Class 40 and BR Class 44 are so similar that there must have been some kind of collusion between the two companies.
		Freightliner's exclusive Class 57 variant is not mentioned but is outside the scope of the title anyway.

	The Fourth Rail: The China Syndrome
		After the Fall of Europe in 1940 and the defeat of the British Army in the Battle of Dunkirk, Britain was left wholly defenseless, save its naval and air assets.
		Now if China is driven from the shores of Taiwan with terrible losses, their naval and air assets eliminated, any ability to protect their energy lifelines destroyed, and basically any ability to exert power in the East threatened, that equation changes drastically.
		It is either basically surrender and become a 3rd class power for another hundred years, or attempt to use nukes to hopefully bring the US to the same level in the region.

		Later in the 1960s the maroon livery was replaced by the British Rail standard blue and grey, and the wrap-round windows were replaced by flat glass - stone-throwers had become a problem and spares of the special panes were expensive.
		Members of the class made occasional one-off trips to London, sometimes on hire to Virgin Trains, and one at least one occasion substituting for the Class 322s which worked the short-lived Manchester Airport - London service which began in May 1998 and lasted just one year.
