RMweb Premium Dava Posted September 20, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 20, 2016 DB Cargo has advertised for sale its last 08s [and an 09] http://www.railmagazine.com/news/fleet/2016/09/19/24-shunters-for-sale-as-db-ceases-using-own-class-08s-and-09s http://uk.dbcargo.com/rail-uk-en/Products_Services/additional_services/Disposals.html 71 years since the LMS-design prototype ran in 1945, this design has outlasted every other diesel & electric prototype on BR.

RMweb Premium newbryford Posted September 20, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 20, 2016 There is a rumour that DBC will outsource it's shunter requirements to externally hired-in traction. So 08/09s may well be on DBC duties for awhile yet but not in EWS/DB colours. Cheers, Mick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
