Known as "bones" due to their shape, the Class 58 was British Rail's first attempt at a modular, American-style locomotive. They were moderately successful on heavy coal drags and similar unit freight trains, but the introduction of the much more efficient Class 66 saw the 58s retired and exported en masse in the first decade of the 21st century.
