	British Rail Class 222 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The British Rail Class 222 is a diesel-electric multiple unit high-speed train.
		The Class 222, manufactured by Bombardier Transportation is capable of 200 km/h (125 mph) and is similar to the Class 220 and 221 Voyager units used by Virgin Trains.
		Although the Class 222 is related to the Voyager units used by Virgin Trains and has a similar appearance, the trains have a radically different interior, altered after feedback from the Voyagers about their cramped interior, and have more components fitted under the floors.

	Rail Blue - The Story
		After discussions with the board, the WR was allowed to keep the locomotives as they were, the Class 35's emblem moving to the centre of the machines and the Class 52's to the cabside opposite the numberplate.
		Some of the smaller classes of locomotives were dealt with surprisingly quickly; in the case of the Class 55 'Deltics' D9002 became the first example outshopped in blue on the 20th October 1966, and D9014 the last, only three years later in November 1969.
		In all, it took nearly twelve years to repaint the Class 47's with 47 256 becoming the very last of its class to be repainted in BR blue in November 1978.

		The British and French miraculously turned back the overstretched German lines at the Battle of the Marne, however, and the two sides dug trenches for a ferocious war of attrition that would last for four years.
		British and French forces were hastily evacuated from Dunkirk to England.

	C&NW Roster Notes
		The GP50s were originally intended to be delivered as CandNW 5000-5049 (note the reversion to use of "00" for the class unit), but the inability to renumber CandNW/METRA E8 suburban locomotives from the lower numbered 5000 series obviously created a conflict, and the GP50s were delivered as 5050-5099.

	CEELI - Draft Law Assessments
		One appropriate reason to exempt a class of individuals or entities from the operation of bankruptcy is that other regulatory schemes specifically address the insolvency of that class.
		The Insolvency Act (1986) created the British insolvency regime for "individuals" and "companies." In the United Kingdom, legal entities established by either statute or Royal Charter are not subject to the usual insolvency regime unless the statute or Royal Charter specifically applies the insolvency regime.
		Another rationale for the exemption of a class of entities or individuals is that the entities serve the nation in an essential way.
