D3022 is an 0-6-0 Class 08 350hp diesel electric shunting loco built at Derby Works in 1953.

== D3022 in main line service ==
Entering service in May 1953 numbered 13022, under the original British Railways numbering scheme, it was allocated to Cricklewood Depot in North London. In 1961 it was renumbered D3022, and in the early 1970s it was transferred to the Eastern Region of British Rail, allocated to Stratford Depot. Renumbered 08015, it moved north shortly afterwards to spend its final years with British Rail based at Shirebrook in the Nottinghamshire coalfield. It was withdrawn from Tinsley Depot, Sheffield, in September 1980.<ref>[http://brdatabase.info/locoqry.php?action=locodata&type=D&id=3022&loco=08015 BRDatabase website]</ref>
