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.

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

Oh bother a bunch of trains that seem to look like real ones in stories actually seem to be completely made up, of course...
