Class 22 Bowing OUT
Description: This article was in the Railways Illustrated magazine (UK). (September 2007 issue, page 55). I am proud to see the interest in Class 22 is as far as United Kingdom as they were built by English Electric

Preserved?
Does anyone know which of these has been preserved? This article says 22102 and 22131. Previous correspondents have reported 22121 and 22131. Is 22102 now at Musium Negara?

More needed !!!
The remaining Class 22s needs to be preserved. The last remaining locos ideally must be in working order. Restoration should be carried out including to its original colour scheme. I know it needs money, time, commitments and space. We hope KTMB and others looks at Class 22 in nostalgic manner rather than scrape metal.

No matter what type of engine this Locomotive use , for me the sound from the engine is different from from other loco except a new class 29 a bit similar .

I am no expert, but SEMT Pielstick is (was) simply an engine manufacturer in the same way MAN B&W , EE , Maybach etc are. Pielstick was the name of its founder, an engineer by the name of G. Pielstick. Commercial and performance dictates and requirements are what basically set the engines technically apart.

the one decorated as 22102 at Musem Negara is actually 22121 - the serial plate on her confirms her original identity.
