On display at open day These electric locomotives were built at Darlington. Initially introduced by the Southern Region in 1959 in connection with the Kent Coast electrification scheme and they were originally numbered E5001 to E5024. Under TOPS they became class 71. They had a maximum rail horse power of 3000 at 59.3 mph and were required to haul freight trains up to 900 tons and passenger trains up to 700 tons. In order to overcome the problems with "gapping" on the third rail due to the relatively short distance between collector shoes special equipment called boosters were fitted This was a flywheel connected to a generator. They were also fitted with a pantograph for working on overhead wiring in sidings to avoid the use of third rail. The bogies had a long wheelbase of 10 feet 6 inches and had 4 foot spoked wheels although in service sometimes these were replaced with plain disc wheels |
