British Railways Class 44, 45 & 46 ‘Peak’
These 3 classes were all externally identical but were fitted with different engines and transmissions. They were known as ‘Peaks’ because the original class 44s were all named after various mountains. Other names for these locomotives include ‘Sulzers’ and ‘Derbies’. They were among the first diesel trains on British Railways.

I reckon this is my best mod yet. You could say I’ve reached…. peak performance…
Also check out my Mark 2A Coaches, which these trains typically hauled as they couldn’t support the later air-conditioned MK2C-F coaches.
