Home News Archive 2013-08-25 - [GB] 66747 - 66749 in active service

Two days ago we presented you with some older news about 66747, 66748 and 66749 being modified for use in the UK. It has been confirmed that all units are now in revenue service. 66747 has been in use from Whitemoor Yard, while 66748 and 66749 have been used for coal and biomass services from respectively Tyne Dock and Doncaster.


Next to some technical modifications for use on the UK network, also the exterior of the locos has changed a bit. All three units have been decorated with small GB Railfreight logos on their yellow front panels.
