The British Rail Class 56 is a type of diesel locomotive designed for heavy freight work. It is a Type 5 locomotive, with a Ruston-Paxman power unit developing 3,250 bhp (2,423 kW), and has a Co-Co wheel arrangement. Enthusiasts nicknamed them "Gridirons" (or "Grids" for short), due to the grid-like horn cover on the locomotive's cab ends fitted to nos. 56056 onwards. Under its Romanian railway factory nomenclature, the locomotive was named Electroputere LDE 3500, with LDE coming from Locomotivă Diesel-Electrică (Diesel-Electric Locomotive) and the 3500 being the planned horsepower output.

The Class 56 fleet was introduced between 1976 and 1984, a total of 135 examples were manufactured. The first 30 locomotives (56001 - 56030, factory classification LDE3500) were built by Electroputere in Romania, but these typically suffered from poor construction standards and many were withdrawn from service early for extensive rebuilding before re-entering revenue service. The remaining 105 locomotives were built by British Rail Engineering Limited (BREL) at Doncaster Works (56031 to 56115) and Crewe Works (56116 to 56135). (en)
  • Les Classe 56 sont une série de 135 locomotives Diesel Co-Co en service sur le réseau des chemins de fer britanniques jusqu'en 2004. Conçues pour le trafic de fret lourd, elles sont entrées en service entre 1976 et 1983. Les trente premières (56001-56030) ont été construites en Roumanie par Electroputere, mais elles souffraient d'une mauvaise qualité de construction. Le reste fut construit en Angleterre par aux ateliers de Doncaster (56031-56115) et de Crewe (56116-56135). Les dernières ont été retirées du service par EWS le 31 mars 2004. Certaines ont depuis repris du service en France pour tracter des trains de travaux sur les chantiers de la LGV Est européenne. En mars 2006, deux de ces locomotives, les 56045 et 56124, ont été réhabilitées en 56301/2 pour le compte de , entreprise ferroviaire britannique de fret lancée par le groupe (en). (fr)
