Guinness Factory - 2 September 2018

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: About 1940 the maintenance of the ageing steam fleet was becoming uneconomic and it was decided to embark on a policy of purchasing diesel locomotives as replacements. The restricted loading gauge and sharp curvature of many of the lines presented many difficulties in design. To meet the necessary requirements a seven ton, 37 horsepower "Planet" diesel locomotive was produced by F.C. Hibberd & Co. Ltd., Park Royal, London. The first example, No.25, was built in 1947, and after trials, Nos.26 to 30 followed in 1948. The other six, Nos.31 to 36, were built in 1950, but No.36 was not delivered until 1951, after spending some months at the Festival of Britain Exhibition in London.
