Coach bogie Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Noted getting fuel in Tees Yard yesterday afternoon while still attached to 6D11 Lackenby - Scunny.

Grimleygrid Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Good to see the number of 60s in the operational pool on the up. I notice that there are now three 60s at Warrington including 040 and also 59201. Is the super shed there to take over one of the FF circuit diagrams? Perhaps Beast or 40044 might be able to advise. Thanks in advance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lochnagar Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 DB red is definitely one to model. Gotta get round to doing 074 too Glad to see DB giving some tugs attention at least Now they've realised a shed can't shift what a 60 can (no surprises there).

Allegheny1600 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Interesting reading here: http://www.rail.co/2011/01/18/db-schenker-rail-invests-in-super-60-high-power-locomotives/ I've not seen it mentioned anywhere else on here but it looks to me, very much like a reprieve for the class (or selected members anyway!). Fingers crossed anyway! Cheers, John E. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed anyway! This was discussed on this thread at the time of the announcement. The first loco, 60007, was due to completed about now but she's still in bits at Toton so the job's obviously a bit more drawn out than they first expected.

Thanks 40044, I presume the plan is to use the 59/2s on the FF circuit replacing 60s? Is that because there is less work for the 59s in the Mendips?
