100 to 1 tells the story of the Brush Class 60 and features all 100 locomotives.

After a troubled start, with numerous problems, a more settled period ensued as the class passed through the Trainload era and into privatisation. Despite their undoubted suitability for Britain's heaviest freight trains, their new owners deemed them surplus to requirements, bringing about a rapid decline in the early years of the new century. A brief resurgence, and a plan to refurbish all 100, came to a sudden end with the economic recession. Their future is now uncertain, and they may indeed have declined from 100 to only one by the time you watch this programme.
