British Rail Class D2/1 was a class of eight diesel-powered locomotives commissioned by British Rail in England and built by the North British Locomotive Company in the pre-TOPS period, with a Paxman engine. The locomotives carried the numbers D2700 to D2707. The Wikipedia article records little of their service life, so this entry rests on what it states about their builder, engine and numbering. It does note that River Eden, a shunter at RAF Leuchars that was built to the same specification as the D2/1, is preserved at the Fife Heritage Railway.
