The London and North Eastern Railway used a few petrol and diesel locomotives. [1] These included the LNER Class Y11 petrol locomotives, the diesel shunters which later became British Rail Class D3/9 and British Rail Class D3/14 and the Kitson-Still steam diesel hybrid locomotive. During the 1930s, Armstrong Whitworth supplied an experimental 1-Co-1 diesel-electric locomotive [2] and several diesel-electric railcars. [3] In the 1940s, the LNER had twenty-five 1,600 hp main-line diesel locomotives on order. These would have been similar to the British Rail Class D16/1 and British Rail Class D16/2 but the order was cancelled after nationalisation in 1948. [4]
The LNER inherited several petrol railcars from its constituent companies:
- NER petrol inspection car [5]
- NER petrol-electric autocars [6] (these were similar in body style to the Tyneside Electrics)
- NER petrol rail motor bus [7]
- NER petrol autocar [8]
- GCR petrol-electric railcar [9]
