Those Great Locomotives - BCWC Type 2 'McRats'

Characteristic Scottish locomotives didn't suddenly disappear when steam was abolished on British Railways. Scotch diesel fan will tell you the diesel loco with perhaps the deepest Scottish connection is the McRat - a name that covers both the TOPS Class 26 and Class 27. Entrusted with Edinburgh expresses and Inverness locals, They are tiny locos with great purpose.
