British Rail Class 165

Passenger Rolling Stock and High-Speed Trainsets

The British Rail Class 165 Networker Turbo is a fleet of suburban diesel-hydraulic multiple unit passenger trains, specified by and built for the Thames and Chiltern Division of Network SouthEast by BREL York Works between 1990 and 1992. The 165/0 sub-class of 39 units was built in 1990 and 1991 for the Chiltern line with a top speed of 75 mph, and the 165/1 sub-class of 37 units followed in 1992 for the Thames line, regeared and fitted with bogie yaw dampers for 90 mph. Both two-car and three-car variants were built, and an express version followed as the Class 166 Networker Turbo Express. The Paddington suburban units were first known as Thames Turbos and the Marylebone units as Chiltern Turbos. The class is still in service with Great Western Railway and Chiltern Railways.
