Where do you put the coal? I'd be a bit more worried about the height of the overhead wires looking at the size of the pantograph on that. |

Yes, the diesel powered the electric traction motors. Type "class 50" into a search engine for more info. |

It is, in fact, a 'Diesel outline' model, referring to the fact that only the outside appearance has been modelled, rather than the entire machine.
