Можно добавить, если я правильно перевел, то это тот лок, который продали в СССР.

HS4000 “Kestrel” at Crewe Works prior to its sale to Russia - 16 May 1971
А тут погрузка локомотива на советское судно.
HS4000 Kestrel transitions dockside at Cardiff into a Russian freighter for a new career in the USSR. The ship was the MV Krasnokansk which ironically was powered by a Sulzer RD76 main engine!
At some point a Sulzer manager did visit Russia to assist HS4000 with some governor problems. During 1995 Geoff and the former Brush test bed foreman tried, through Sulzer Moscow, to see if the locomotive still existed, with the intent to try and bring it back to the UK. Unfortunately by the time of this request the locomotive had been scrapped.
