English Electric Type 4 1Co-Co1 No 333 is seen at the head
of empty stock on the Tyseley diesel traction training special on 15th February
1965. Later numbered 40 133 these machines weighed up to 136 tons and required
four axles per bogies to help carry the weight. The length of bogie compelled
the designers to have the leading axle to swing independent of the bogie and a
non-powered pony wheel was therefore added.
