Ex works BR Blue 37099 has been released into test, working 0Z60 Barrow Hill to Doncaster DCE Sdgs this afternoon with 60096 for insurance.

Looks amazing with yellow ploughs and black split box, hopefully on test trains not before long!

37099 to work 0F85 Bescot to Cardiff Canton this afternoon, reports suggest for a repaint into house colours. Already!

70804 was noted on an engineers train with 70801 at Westbourne Park yesterday.

Yes was a relatively quick re-rail and inspection then put back into use. Less can be said about 803, that might actually not come back!

66513 and 66523 have been hired in off Freightliner for the Gloucester RHTT because of the 56s being deemed too unreliable.


RE: Colas Rail - ant17612 - 16/11/2016 01:26

Batch 2 of the 70s due from January and finish April. I assume into Seaforth like the last lot.


RE: Colas Rail - childwallblues - 16/11/2016 07:00

Yet 56105 and 56078 seem reliable enough on the North Wales RHTT.


RE: Colas Rail - childwallblues - 27/11/2016 10:39

The North Wales RHTT based at Coleham will next week be a pair of Class66 hired in from Freightliner.
