The British Rail Class 122 Diesel Railcar, also known as the "Bubble Car," is a classic example of mid-20th century railway innovation in the UK. Introduced in 1958, these single-car diesel multiple units (DMUs) were designed for use on lightly-used branch lines and rural routes, offering a cost-effective and efficient transport solution. Built by Gloucester Railway Carriage and Wagon Company, the Class 122s are celebrated for their distinctive design, reliable performance, and enduring legacy in British rail history. Today, these vintage DMUs remain popular among heritage railways and railway enthusiasts, continuing to capture the charm of an era when diesel power was revolutionizing rail travel across the country.
