Vendor Description (OnTracks)The Class 31 was one of the Pilot Scheme locomotives ordered by British Railways to replace steam traction. They were originally built with Mirrlees JVSS12 1250bhp and 1365bhp engines, but these were not successful and in 1964 a programme of works commenced to re-engine the fleet with 1470bhp English Electric engines and Brush electrical equipment. The locomotives were originally known as class 30 under TOPS, with re-engines examples joining Class 31. The class was originally intended for service on the Eastern Region, but gradually became common in both the Western and London Midland regions too.
