Summary
[edit]| Description | Brush Type 4 (later Class "47/0") 2,750hp Co-Co No.D1865 (later No.47 215) in BR two-tone green livery at Stratford MPD, 07/67. Note odd headcode. Because of fatigue problems with their Sulzer engine frames, D1865 was one of a batch (D1862-D1961) to be downrated in 1966-67 from 2,750hp to 2,340hp after trails with similarly downrated D1930 & D1932 had been successful, but at the cost of a serious impact on train schedules. Subsequently, engine modifications and a downrating to 2,580hp for all Class 47's proved to be a satisfcatory compromise, although the sparkling performance of the class in original form was never recaptured. From being great fans of the complex, Swiss-designed Sulzer engines, BR management was seemingly irrevocably put-off and the less high-tech, but more robust and reliable English Electric engines regained favour.
