Having taken 70099 into its fleet and renumbered it 70801 Colas has ordered a further nine for its expanding traffic.

What will the Class 70's be used on?

No idea what their use will be.
It seems that the first four should be delivered to the UK in two batches of two in about one months time. Port of arrival likely to be Seaforth.

70803 and 70805 are due to be loaded at Norfolk, Va and arrive at Seaforth at the end of the year.

70803 and 70805 are due (weather permitting ) to arrive at Seaforth on January 3.
