List of British Rail Class 43 (HST) power cars
This article lists all power cars that were built as part of the British Rail Class 43 High Speed Train (HST) fleet. The Class 43 is a type of diesel-electric locomotive built between 1975 and 1982. These power cars operated in pairs, one at each end of a fixed formation of Mark 3 passenger coaches.
The list includes the original TOPS (Total Operations Processing System) numbers assigned to each power car upon construction. Significant subsequent renumberings or name changes, where applicable, are also noted. The current operational status or disposal information (e.g., scrapped, preserved, stored) is included to the best of available knowledge, acknowledging that the status of individual locomotives may change over time. Data regarding significant modifications or conversions is included where relevant.
The information is compiled from publicly available sources, including railway industry publications, enthusiast websites, and historical records. While every effort is made to ensure accuracy, the information may not always be complete or up-to-date.
Note that this list focuses specifically on the Class 43 power cars themselves and does not include details about the Mark 3 coaches that formed part of the HST sets.
