The British Rail Class 55, also known as a Deltic, or English Electric type 5, is a class of diesel locomotive built in 1961 and 1962 by English Electric for British Railways. They were designed for the high-speed express passenger services on the East Coast Main Line (ECML) between Edinburgh and London King's Cross. They gained the name "Deltic" from the prototype locomotive, DP1 Deltic (the running number DP1 was never carried), which in turn was named after its Napier Deltic power units. At the time of their introduction into service, the Class 55s were the most powerful single-unit diesel locomotives in the world, with a power output of 3,300 hp (2,500 kW). They had an official maximum speed of 100 miles per hour (160 km/h), however this was frequently exceeded, especially in their lat

  • Die Klasse 55 der British Railways war eine Baureihe von insgesamt 22 Diesellokomotiven, die 1961 und 1962 von English Electric (EE) gebaut wurden. Sie wurden für den Schnellzug-Personenverkehr auf der East Coast Main Line zwischen dem Londoner Bahnhof Kings Cross und Edinburgh entwickelt und waren bis 1981 im Einsatz. Die Bezeichnung „Deltic“ des Prototyps, DP1, stammte von dem speziellen Motortyp und wurde auf die ganze Baureihe übertragen. Sechs Lokomotiven blieben betriebstüchtig erhalten. (de)

  • British Rail Class 55 var en typ av brittiska diesellok som tillverkades åren 1961 och 1962 av företaget English Electric. Loken byggdes för att dra expresståg på engelska östkusten, främst mellan King's Cross station i London och Edinburgh Waverley. Typen kom att kallas Deltic, efter en prototyp som bar det namnet. Totalt tillverkades 22 exemplar varav sex stycken finns bevarade. Reguljärtrafiken med loktypen ersattes helt under åren 1980-1982 av InterCity 125-lok. (sv)
  • A British Rail Class 55 é uma classe de locomotivas diesel construídas entre 1961 e 1962 pela empresa English Electric do Reino Unido. Foram designadas para o transporte expresso de alta velocidade na ferrovia que liga Londres à Edimburgo, receberam o nome de Deltic devido a instalação do motor provindo do protótipo da locomotiva, a DELTIC (sendo que o número DP1 nunca foi usado). Com a introdução da nova classe a InterCity 125 HST (High Speed Trains) a classe 55 foi sendo substituída para serviços semi-rápidos de transporte de passageiros, sendo que a remoção definitiva de seus serviços se deu entre janeiro de 1980 e dezembro de 1981.

  • 英國鐵路55型柴電機車(British Rail Class 55 ),暱稱「三角(Deltic)」 ,是英国电氣公司于 1961 年和 1962 年为英国铁路公司建造的柴電机车。本型車設計用於爱丁堡和倫敦國王十字車站的东海岸主线上的高速快速客运服务。因為原型機車使用納皮爾三角氣缸配置柴油引擎(Napier Deltic),而被稱為DP1 Deltic,本型車因而暱稱Deltic(三角)。單機高達3300匹馬力(2500KW)的輸出,本型車面世時,是世界上最強大的內燃機車。 官方紀錄最高時速為100英里(161公里),但營運時經常超過此速度,尤其是在營運後期,在平坦路線曾有高達117英里(188公里)的時速,下坡曾有125英里(201公里)的時速。 本型車共製造 22 辆,牽引東海岸主線的特快列車(主要在倫敦至里茲與愛丁堡區間)。 隨著城際列車125的引入,1978 年開始本型車降級牽引倫敦国王十字車站至约克、爱丁堡和赫尔等區間的半快速列車,以及臥鋪列車。所有機車已在 1980 年 1 月至 1981 年 12 月退役。 (zh)

  • Class 55 van British Rail is een zesassige diesellocomotief die in 1961 en 1962 geproduceerd is door English Electric. Ze zijn ontworpen voor de expresdiensten op de East Coast Main Line tussen King's Cross in Londen en Edinburgh Waverly. De naam "Deltic" danken ze aan het prototype uit 1955, DELTIC (Het loknummer DP1 is nooit aangebracht), dat op haar beurt was genoemd naar de toegepaste motor. De 22 exemplaren domineerden de expresdienst op de East Coast Main Line (ECML), met name op de verbindingen London – Leeds en London – Edinburgh tot ze in 1978 werden afgelost door de Intercity 125 'High Speed Train'. Tussen 1978 en 1981 werden ze geleidelijk naar minder belangrijke diensten verplaatst zoals sneltreinen en kranten-pakket-slaaptrein diensten langs de ECML met bestemmingen als Camb (nl)
