The APT-E, for Advanced Passenger Train Experimental, was the prototype Advanced Passenger Train tilting train unit. It was powered by gas turbines, the only multiple unit so powered that was used by British Rail. The APT-E consisted of two driving power cars (PC1 and 2) and two trailer cars (TC1 and 2). Each power car was equipped with four Rover-built Leyland 2S/350 gas turbines (and a fifth for auxiliary power supplies), which initially produced 300 hp each but were progressively uprated to 330 hp. Two GEC 253AY nose suspended traction motors provided the traction on the leading bogies. The vehicles were manufactured from aluminium and were approximately 70 ft long (21 m), with articulated bogies between them.

  • The APT-E, for Advanced Passenger Train Experimental, was the prototype Advanced Passenger Train tilting train unit. It was powered by gas turbines, the only multiple unit so powered that was used by British Rail. The APT-E consisted of two driving power cars (PC1 and 2) and two trailer cars (TC1 and 2). Each power car was equipped with four Rover-built Leyland 2S/350 gas turbines (and a fifth for auxiliary power supplies), which initially produced 300 hp each but were progressively uprated to 330 hp. Two GEC 253AY nose suspended traction motors provided the traction on the leading bogies. The vehicles were manufactured from aluminium and were approximately 70 ft long (21 m), with articulated bogies between them. The APT-E made its first run on 25 July 1972 from Derby to Duffield and was immediately 'blacked' by the drivers' union ASLEF, due to concerns that the single driver's seat pre-empted ongoing negotiations about the single-manning of trains. It was over twelve months before it ran again on the main line in August 1973. The prototype was eventually tried out on the Great Western Main Line, and achieved a new British railway speed record when on 10 August 1975 it hit 152.3 mph (245.1 km/h) whilst on test with the Western Region between Swindon and Reading. It was also tested extensively on the Midland Main Line out of London St. Pancras and on the Old Dalby Test Track, where in January 1976 it attained a speed of 143.6 mph (231.1 km/h). The unit was only intended for testing and was never used in ordinary public service, although it did carry office staff and the occasional dignitary on trial runs. When its period of testing was complete, in June 1976, it was sent to the National Railway Museum, York for preservation. It is now based at the NRM's Locomotion museum in Shildon. When further APT Class 370 units were built, they were powered by 25 kV AC electrification. (en)
  • APT-E(Advanced Passenger Train Experimental)は振り子式車両のAPT (鉄道車両)の試作機である。イギリス国鉄で運行された唯一の電気式ガスタービン動車だった。2両の動力車(PC1とPC2), と両端に単位2両の客車(TC1とTC2)を連結した4両編成だった。軽量化のためアルミニウム製で連接式だった。1972年7月に最初の試運転を行いイギリス国鉄における高速記録である152.3 mph (245.1 km/h)を樹立した。 編成は試験のみに使用され、旅客輸送には使われなかった。1976年6月すべての試験を終え、ヨークの国立鉄道博物館に送られた。現在はNRMの交通博物館に保存されている。370形「APT-P」編成が後に作られ交流25kV区間で運転された。 (ja)

  • 英国铁路APT-E型燃气涡轮动车组(英文全稱:Advanced Passenger Train Experimental,“实验型高级客运列车”)是英國鐵路一型試驗型动力分散式擺式客運動車組,使用燃氣輪機動力。僅製造一組。該型动车组为4节编组,头尾两节动车(编号為PC1、PC2),中间两节拖车(编号為TC1、TC2)。每節動車安裝有四臺和一臺輔助供電引擎。每臺燃氣渦輪發動機初期功率為300馬力,後期升級至330馬力。 兩端頭部的轉向架則安裝有英国通用电气公司生產的253AY型牽引電機。車體采用鋁製車體,每節車廂長21米,使用兩節車廂連接處安裝有關節式轉向架。 APT-E于1972年7月25日首次上线运行,路线为德比至达菲尔德(Duffield)。但不久後卻極力阻止該型列車的使用,因為該工會認爲APT-E的一人駕駛制設計可能會導致工作崗位流失。 这使得改型動車組直到1973年8月才再次上綫運行。 APT-E曾於1975年8月在大西部幹綫斯溫頓-雷丁區間達到245.1千米/小時的最高速度,打破之前英國的鐵路列車速度紀錄。 1976年1月由伦敦圣潘克拉斯车站出发经米德兰主线和Old Dalby试验线的测试中达到了231.1千米/小时的最高速度。 该型动车组仅用于内部测试使用,从未面向公众提供服务。在1976年6月测试结束后,该列车被送往位于约克的大英铁路博物馆。后又改由国立希尔登铁路博物馆收藏至今。亦为改型列车的衍生型号,但370型动车组采用交流25千伏50赫兹架空电缆供电。 * 現保存于希爾登鐵路博物館的APT-E型动车组 (zh)
