Remarks & Notes |
Class 1161 shunters were built in batches beginning in 1926 to replace antiquated steam locos used at the time for switching in electrified territory. Despite their ungainly appearance the engines were a success, withstanding the test of time. The last examples were withdrawn from service in 1993. |
