Chinese DFH3- A BR 'Warship' cousin?

Chinese DFH3- A BR 'Warship' cousin? by Renown.
Breaking away from the party to avoid ridicule on a steam tour sometimes paid off. So it was on the Tiefa Industrial system that I came across this particular locomotive type which attracted me by it's sound effects. The music from within was courtesy of twin Maybach 'Vee' engines (or copies of) and Voith type hydraulic transmission. All told, they performed a perfect impression of a BR Western Region 'Warship'... which was ok by me! Somewhere, I've a few seconds of video which I'll see if I can find.
