Locomotive Testing on Britain's Railways, 1901–1968

A Non-technical Overview

Dave Peel

In order to see how much weight an engine could pull, at what speed, and at what cost in coal and water, the railway companies developed dynamometer cars for on-the-road trials as well as stationary testing plants. This review of the process covers the period from the introduction of the first test car to the phasing out of regional locomotive testing.
