| These
10 small 0-6-0 204hp locos were constructed by Andrew Barclay as part
of the diverse ordering of diesel shunting traction of the 1950s. These
locos entered service between 1956-57 and were used largely in the Lincoln
and Boston areas of the former Eastern Region. When first delivered
the locos carried black livery and 1948 series numbers, these were later
amended to the D24xx series. These locos did not have train braking
and were prone to frequent failure. No. D2400 is illustrated. CJM
