The '''[[ČSD]] Class T 466.2/3''', later [[ČD]] and [[ZSSK]] class 742/3, are a class of diesel locomotives, constructed by [[ČKD Praha]] between 1977 and 1986.
== History ==
The locomotive was developed from the [[ČSD Class T 448.0]] shunting locomotive, modified to be more suited to [[ČSD]]'s needs, including a higher top speed, lower axle loads, and the relevant signalling equipment.<ref name="Prototypy">{{Cite web |url=http://www.prototypy.cz/?rada=742 |title=Řada 742 ( T466.2 ) ČD a ZSSK |date=27 June 2007 |website=www.prototypy.cz |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200105105000/http://www.prototypy.cz/?rada=742 |archive-date=5 January 2020 |access-date=5 January 2020}}</ref>
The first series of 60 locomotives started to be delivered in 1977, and were allocated to depots at [[Bratislava]], [[Leopoldov]], [[Bohumín]], [[Děčín]], [[Trutnov]], [[Plzeň]], [[Ostrava]], [[Hradec Králové]], [[Liberec]], and [[Ústí nad Labem]]. In total 494 locomotives were built, of which 438 went to [[ČSD|the Czechoslovak State Railways]]<ref name="Prototypy" />
One of the locomotives, T466.2037, was the 1000th locomotive produced by [[ČKD Praha]].<ref name="Prototypy" />
