I have no idea, tried to Google it....I didn't get any wiser!
Beat me to it, the 24 class looks similar too, both types still working on the NYMR Diesel LocomotivesLooking like the British Rail Class 25... from 60'

You mean the width of the rolling stock?Is it just me, or is the load profile narrower here on the island kingdom....always feels like it when travelling on the trains in Sweden....

Since my dad worked on engines I did a lot of jigsaw puzzles as a child, the engine in the video looks more continental, like some French and Italian types, and BR did operate some engines built abroad.Yep.. it is possible because the 24 class was modified and soon became the 25 class. So according to the link it can be Class 24/1 or Class 25/0
locomotive cab, Class 25

It quite possibly is, one of the problems with doing something you havnt done before is that your decisions cast things in stone forever. Once they decided how high and wide tunnels should be, then they cant go any bigger without shutting down the line for years to dig new ones. Everyone would love higher wider trains on the London underground, but how would you do it? Japanese bullet trains are definitely wider than anything in EuropeAye....always feels narrower here!
Probably to address the same issue of loading gauge. According to this The UK has the most restrictive and Sweden one of the largest in Europe Loading gauge - WikipediaMust say that there's been some odd designs, when it comes to the diesel locomotives....quite like the Class 42 though!
