D6775 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Does anyone know why it was on 58 bogies? 56042 was used as the test bed for some of the parts used when the 58's were built, including the bogies. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
108 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 (edited) These were the prototype bogies, before the class 58's were built. Beaten to it ! Edited March 8, 2014 by 108 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
