Episode 7 | The Dawn of Diesel - GWR Diesel Railcars (Featuring No. 22 - Didcot Railway Centre)

Welcome to the seventh of my feature videos! Today we are going to look at some of the earliest diesel trains in Britain - The GWR Railcar! Star of the show is the last remaining example in running condition - No. 22 which has been lovingly preserved and operated by the dedicated team at the Didcot Railway Centre. In this video I’ve tried to give you a little bit of background information as well as provide lots of footage of it running and footage of a cab ride also.

This is a great piece of living railway history in its own right, however Didcot Railway Centre is packed with railway history - it is very much a working museum and I adore the place!
