Afternoon All.

Last Saturday morning, the Ninth of February. I visited Freightliner's Leeds Midland Road Depot. Looking through the fence, I managed to see a number of Loco's. 66420 66622 70006 66591 66572 66953 66570 and 70013. Plus a few others which numbers, unfortunately I could not make out. That will teach me, not to take my Binoculars with me! Anyway, 70013 was at a long line of stored 70's. Would anyone know what Locos are in that line? 

 

Many Thanks in Adavance

I pass sometimes on Northern units and it's difficult to catch all of the numbers in that line but I know some of them. 

 

From the back to the front I know that it's: 70013, 70016, 70018. 

 

After that some of the 70s in front of 70018 have been moved around on several occasions so the order does change. 

 

For example 70001 was in this line, but was recently reinstated and is now stored again. 

 

Hope this helps. Sorry I can't help anymore.

Just found a report from last Sunday (10th February 2019). 

 

It confirms that from back to the front it was 70013, 70016, 70018, 70017, 70004, 70009, 70019, 70011 and 70014. 

 

There were also four 66s in front of the 70s in the same line but the numbers of those couldn't be identified. 

 

I very much doubt that the line was changed in the space of the Saturday morning and the Sunday morning so I would presume that the above list is correct. 

 

Hope this helps.
