The NER Class ES1 (Electric Shunting 1) [1] was a class of two steeplecab electric locomotives commissioned by the North Eastern Railway in 1902. Both locomotives passed to the London and North Eastern Railway in 1923 and then to British Railways in 1948, but both were withdrawn before TOPS numbers could be applied.

The NER Electric Bo-Bo Class ES1 Locomotives. Shortly after the North Eastern Railway's (NER) electrification of the passenger lines on the north bank of the Tyne (see NER Tyneside Electric Multiple Units), it was decided to also electrify the Newcastle Quayside branch. This line was only about a mile long and connected the Newcastle Quayside ...

The British Rail Class ES1 was a class of two electric locomotives commissioned by the North Eastern Railway in 1902. They were of steeplecab design. There was a short railway from Trafalgar Yard in Manors East to Newcastle Quayside that was opened in 1870. Shaped like a horseshoe, it had tight corners, small tunnels and steep slopes.

These two electric shunting engines were instead built for this line by Brush using BTH electrical equipment collecting 600v DC current from overhead lines and third rail (in the tunnel). At the time of construction they were the largest electric locomotives built in the UK [2].

2008年9月7日 · I seem to remember reading or seeing a photo a while back of an N gauge North Eastern Railway ES1 Bo-Bo shunting locomotive. Does anyone know if one has been produced? The ES1 is one of my favourite locomotives, as they have a very interesting history and have 'looks' too (as weird as it sounds to say that about a locomotive...).

The two ES1 (a 1945 LNER classification) locomotives were built for the North Eastern Railway in 1903 for working the steeply graded line from Manors to Newcastle Quayside Yard. Built by British Thomson-Houston, the mechanical parts were sub-contracted to Brush Electrical Engineering Co.

2017年12月13日 · They later passed into the LNER fleet and finally British Railways where they became known as the Class ES1. They were finally retired in 1964, Number 1 was preserved and can now be found at NRM Shildon.

This OO Gauge model was developed and produced by Heljan exclusively for Locomotion Models and shows No.1200 ‘ES1’ in North Eastern Railway lined Green. ‘ES1’ would make a great addition to any collection as an electric shunting locomotive …
