Manufacturer description
Clayton DHP1
We proudly announce that we intend to produce the Clayton DHP1. It was a demonstrator ordered by Rolls Royce to showcase their engines and hydraulic transmission, with help from Col Fell of 10100 Fell Loco fame. Clayton modified the Class 17 drawings to suit the requirement as they were designed around the same time, although the 17 was about 4 feet longer, but the general layout was identical, testing didn’t go to plan and it was soon relegated to works shunter for the final 2 Class 17’s being built (the 2 with Rolls Royce engines).
