Class 73 |

| Although
primarily an electrified region, the Southern had many of its lines
and important sites not covered by the third rail system, and so,
during the modernisation programme, the Class 73 electro-diesels were
developed having the versatility to operate from third rail
electricity or from their own English Electric diesel engine.
