A soon to be finalised order of 10x Tri Mode Class 93 locomotives is well and truly on the cards. Similar to the 88 but with a more powerful diesel engine and also can operate on battery power. The loco's will come complete with the coupling gear modded to the 37s over the last few years and will have their own variation of the blue livery applied to 47813 and 47815.
Prior to no delay with the ongoing situation we see ourselves in, the first of these should arrive in August.
