Train manufacture in Derby

A chance Tweet on NSB's timeline brought the news that 2014 was the 175th anniversary of the start of Railway engine and rolling stock manufacture at Derby, and was being celebrated with the "Derby 175" programme of events.

Crikey, thought NSB, how interesting! And wondered what types of trains had been made in Derby, and of what types.

Surprisingly this information did not appear to be readily available on the Internet (although the Internet has been able to collect such lists as a full set of races featured in Star Trek ) - Go figure !

So NSB did some digging, the results of which is the (still far from exhaustive) list below of engines and rolling stock made at Derby over the decades.

(NB: "Year" is first year of manufacture, many series with 10 or fewer omitted from list)
