Not sure if thishas been posted but Victa Westlink are to order 4 66's from Electromotive Division in Canada. These will be in the number range of 66801 - 66804 (why it cant be 66800 - 803 is beyond me!!). These should be available by Easter 2008.
(taken from this weeks Railway Herald).
So we now have:
66001 - 66250 EWS /Eurocargo Rail
66401 - 66430 DRS*
66501 - 66594 Freightliner
66601 - 66625 Freightliner
66701 - 66732 GBRF*
66801 - 66804 Victa Westlink*
66951 - 66952 Freightliner
Thats 5 companies in the Uk operating the Type 66 loco. Not bad really.
* Locos also on order.
things are looking bleak for non 66 lovers!!!
Cheers
