RE: Freightliner
70007 is shown FAIL and the other five STOR on this evenings list.

Seems extremely odd that a month ago it was said the fleet was going up to 13 - I wonder if whoever 66413 was painted to impress has demanded they were taken out of traffic?

I think it's been on the cards for a long time to get rid of the lot, presume a lack of available 66s was the reasoning for a few coming back out briefly. They are dogged with faults unlike the new built Colas ones which have proven to be extremely more reliable. The future is bleak for FL's ones.

Seems to be a lot of ongoing maintenance now at Midland Road on the 10/11 that were sat by the mainline for months. Wonder if FL have picked up some more work recently.
