‘ANDANIA’ : BR D213 (40013)

CLASS 40 : 1CO-CO1

Locomotive No. ‘40013’ was called ‘Andania’ although no longer wears her nameplate. A total of 200 Class 40s were built by English Electric between 1958 and 1962 and were numbered D200-D399, but ‘Andania’ is one of just seven in the class to be preserved since being retired. They were for a time the pride of the British Rail early diesel fleet. Despite their initial success, by the time the last examples were entering service they were already being replaced on some top-link duties by more powerful locomotives. As they were slowly relegated from express passenger uses, the class found work on secondary passenger and freight services where they worked for many years, the final locomotives being retired from regular service in 1985. It was, infamously, one of this class that was involved in the 1963 Great Train Robbery. ‘Andania’ is currently based at Crewe.
