Was that a special paint job for Halloween?!
No, that was their livery. More images of it can be seen here: http://www.lokman.se/Tagbilder/Svenska_tag/Svenska_godstag/Rush_Rail.htm
Was that a special paint job for Halloween?!
Apart from one line in the Southwest about 10 years ago, and a couple new-built lines, there hasn't been any electrification of previously unelectrified lines in Sweden for ages, about 50 years probably...
Bloody Hell. Glad they they exist in the UK, that livery is pretty rushed looking...No, that was their livery. More images of it can be seen here: http://www.lokman.se/Tagbilder/Svenska_tag/Svenska_godstag/Rush_Rail.htm
That livery etc does the job. I wonder if they had to pay a lot for a consultant to design that and pay for a fancy paint job ?.
Staggered by how many DBS 66s have left for Europe !. Miracle any 60s are left alive ?.
Awww jealous. That's arguably a rolling program of electrification. Especially if the 1992 one was a big job ?. The 2018 one was not a big job !.Electrification in Sweden during the last 50 years (year when the electrification was finished) excluding new-built lines:
1978: Siljansbanan (Borlänge-Mora)
1981: Vännäs-Umeå
1992: Umeå-Holmsund
1995: Älvsbyn-Piteå
1996: Ystadbanan (Malmö-Ystad)
1997: Mellansel-Örnsköldsvik and Bastuträsk-Skelleftehamn
2003: Österlenbanan (Ystad-Simrishamn)
2004: Göteborgs Hamnbana (Gothenburg port)
2007: Blekinge Kustbana (Kristianstad-Karlskrona)
2011: Haparandabanan (Boden-Kalix + new line from Kalix to Haparanda/Torneå)
2012: The southernmost part of Inlandsbanan (Kristinehamn-Nykroppa)
And in 2018 the short stretch between Storlien and the Norwegian border was electrified to prepare for an electrification of the rail line on the Norwegian side.
Awww jealous. That's arguably a rolling program of electrification. Especially if the 1992 one was a big job ?. The 2018 one was not a big job !.

792 on its way to tonbridge just now
To be fair, part of that is because the livery is rather dirty having presumably not been cleaned in months, and left out in the open.Looks like an old, worn-out, graffiti-covered loco. Whoever came up with that livery has quite literally zero design skill.
