Electro-diesel 73 140 Groombridge Spa Valley Railway 24 9 2022
These engines are hybrid, with a diesel motor which drives a generator to power an electric traction motor. The latter can also use current picked up from a third rail, where that is available. This has made these engines very versatile.
