User:Epsilon/Trains in the DWU
Types of trains in Doctor Who. Can be identified via headcodes.
Gonna try and make pages for both the train Classes and the individual locos, where possible. Some stories just make up trains, which is silly.
Image | Class | Individual Loco | Source | Notes | Useful links |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Class 117 | 2M65 and A113? Apparently owned by Cotswold Diesel Railcar Ltd in the real world? | TV: Flatline | The 117, especially in the 1960s British Railway livery, is a major anachronism for 2014, when the story was set. This can be potentially justified as the train is marked "Not in Service", potentially meaning it is being transported, but it's a stretch. | "Flatline" Review by Little Storping-in-the-Swuff | |
Class 08 | Class 08 (Flatline)? | In the shed. | [1] | ||
N/A | Locomotion No. 1 | PROSE: A History of Humankind | |||
Turret Class | Ivy Lee | AUDIO: The Nowhere Place | A completely made up loco, but the image to represent the train on the cover is an SECR N class. |
