The first of the 135-strong class arrived at Harwich from Romania in 1976, before commissioning by BR the following year. Only 30 examples were imported, due to relatively poor build quality, and these were subsequently rebuilt.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe remainder of the class were assembled by BREL at Doncaster and Crewe, with Ashford, Eastleigh, and Swindon supplying sub-assemblies, while Ruston-Paxman supplied the power units.
