Currently there are more than 170 preserved British Rail diesel shunters (Classes 01-13) in the UK. These can usually be seen at various preserved railways across the country.
This is a pictorial record of the many classes of diesel shunters that are currently being restored, having thankfully been saved from the cutter’s torch. For the sake of simplicity, shunters have been labelled with their last running number worn before withdrawal. For more information about preserved British Rail shunters see the
Preserved Shunters or the
Heritage Shunters Trust websites.
