==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 piston-powered products were clearly preferable to British Rail, and the GT3 was but a strange side-note in the development of modern railway locomotives.
