The Class 60 was the last truly British-built diesel locomotive design. Their introduction did not go smoothly, however, and they took almost three years to enter service due to various teething troubles. From 1990, the locomotive was gradually delivered, with 100 in total going to the Railfreight sectors of Metal, Coal, Construction and Petroleum.
Privatization saw all the class being sold on to English, Welsh & Scottish Railways and, in 2004, the first Class 60 was withdrawn. Once these were ironed out, the class became reasonably reliable, and examples of other classes that were getting very tired at the time were progressively withdrawn. Towards the end of the 2000s, almost all of the locos were put into store with a seemingly very bleak future.
