BR Class 230

The BR Class 230 D-Train is a DEMU or BEMU built by Vivarail. The units are converted from old London Underground D78 Stock, originally manufactured in 1980 by Metro-Cammell. The conversion re-uses the D78 bodyshells with new interiors. It runs on the same bogies but rebuilt by Wabtec and fitted with three-phase AC induction motors. The initial build of 3 units for London Northwestern Railway replaces the four-rail traction-current system with four diesel gen-sets, driving eight traction motors via purpose-built electronic traction control units. Vivarail, the manufacturer of the class, entered administration in December 2022, with the resulting cessation of maintenance service causing London Northwestern to withdraw their fleet from service.
