The British Rail Class 26 diesel locomotives also known as the BRCW Type 2 were built by the Birmingham Railway Carriage & Wagon Company (BRCW) at Smethwick in 1958-59. Forty seven examples were built and the last were withdrawn from service in 1993. Like their higher-powered sisters the BRCW Classes 27 and 33 they had all-steel bodies and cab ends with fibreglass cab roofs.[citation needed]
