==Prototype information==
[[Image:gt3.jpg|left|240px]]Built, for some unfathomable reason, on the chassis of a [[Jubilee|Standard Five]] steam locomotive, English Electric's Gas Turbine demonstrator was powerful and fast, but expensive, hard to maintain and very, VERY noisy. English Electric's own diesel products were clearly preferable to British Rail, and the GT3 was but a strange side-note in the development of modern railway locomotives.
