The Campbell-Railton Blue Bird was Sir Malcolm Campbell's final land speed record car. His previous Campbell-Napier-Railton Blue Bird of 1931 was rebuilt significantly. The overall layout and the simple twin deep chassis rails remained, but little else. The bodywork remained similar, with the narrow body, the tombstone radiator grille and the semi-spatted wheels, but the mechanics were new. Most significantly, a larger, heavier and considerably more powerful Rolls-Royce R V12 engine replaced the old Napier Lion, again with supercharger. This required two prominent "knuckles" atop the bodywork, to cover the V12 engine's camboxes.

  • Der Campbell-Railton Blue Bird war ein von Malcolm Campbell eingesetztes Rekordfahrzeug, mit dem er 1935 seine letzten beiden Landgeschwindigkeitsrekorde aufstellte. Das Fahrzeug basierte in weiten Teilen auf seinem Vorgängermodell Campbell-Napier-Railton Blue Bird von 1931, wurde aber vom Konstrukteur Reid Railton erheblich modifiziert. (de)
  • El Campbell-Railton Blue Bird automóvil de récords de velocidad, el último utilizado por Sir Malcolm Campbell. Su vehículo anterior, el Campbell-Napier-Railton Blue Bird de 1931, se remodeló significativamente. Se mantuvo el diseño global y la disposición del chasis sobre dos railes gemelos, pero poco más. La carrocería quedó con un aspecto similar, con un cuerpo estrecho, la toma del radiador alargada y las ruedas semicarenadas, pero la mecánica era completamente nueva. Más significativamente, se instaló un novedoso motor Rolls-Royce R V12 sobrealimentado, más grande, más pesado y considerablemente más potente, reemplazando al viejo Napier Lion.​ Esto requirió añadir dos abultamientos en la parte superior de la carrocería, para cubrir los árboles de levas del motor.​​​ (es)

  • Il Campbell-Railton Blue Bird è un'automobile da record. Pilotata dal britannico Malcolm Campbell, fu la prima vettura a superare le 300 mph su terra. (it)
  • Campbell-Railton Blue Bird — рекордный автомобиль Малкольма Кэмпбелла. Его предыдущий автомобиль «Campbell-Napier-Railton Blue Bird» 1931 года была значительно переделан. Общая компоновка сохранилась, но и только. Кузов остался таким же узким, с прежней решёткой радиатора и полузакрытыми колесами, но механика была новой. Более крупный, тяжёлый и значительно более мощный авиационный двигатель Rolls-Royce R V12 заменил старый Napier Lion, тоже с нагнетателем. Это потребовало двух выступающих «кулаков» на верхней части кузова, чтобы закрыть распределительные коробки двигателя V12. (ru)
