They originally carried numbers D226 and D227, their Vulcan Foundry works numbers, but these were later amended to avoid clashing with the numbers of new [[British Rail Class 40|Class 40]] locomotives. {{British Rail Locomotives}} {{transport-stub}} [[Category:British Rail diesel locomotives|D0226]] [[Category:English Electric locomotives]] [[Category:Vulcan Foundry locomotives]] [[Category:C locomotives]]
