RE: GB Railfreight
An update on the 5 new arrivals given theirs been a few developments recently;
66792 worked (afaik its first) revenue earning service from Doncaster to Whitemoor last night and return in the early hours with 66704 in consist for insurance purposes throughout.

66790 and 66791 were moved over the weekend across from Doncaster Roberts Road to Doncaster Decoy assuming entry into traffic is imminent.

Since being collected a few weeks ago, 66793 and 66794 remain on Doncaster Roberts Road.
