Most likely never, unless you count ones that have been converted back for UK use.How often are euro 66s seen in the UK ?
Other than the ones that came over for overhaul in the last year or two....Most likely never, unless you count ones that have been converted back for UK use.
You now and again see them passing the Dutch railcam

Thanks for the replies...thought they might have come to toton for service or overhaul
Most likely never for southerners like yourselfMost likely never, unless you count ones that have been converted back for UK use.
What about the Channel Tunnel? If 66s are coming from the continent, I'll see them on the way to Ashford!Most likely never for southerners like yourself
You’ve probably got some posh new train for that lolWhat about the Channel Tunnel? If 66s are coming from the continent, I'll see them on the way to Ashford!
That's a lot of freight for a country in lockdown, or are the Netherlands not yet there?
Going back about 10 years there were quite a number of ex British Class 66 visiting the UK for various reasons mainly to get to Toton for repairs. However others returned for the Sandite season. Two (66217 I think was one of them) even appeared at at EMD Longport. When they transferred on masse to France I still needed six of them. Since then I have travelled to Toton (3 times) Bescot and Alexandra Palace for them but 66234 still evades me.
None have been reported recently.Do they still come back to Toton for servicing? Thought that must happen now in mainland Europe?
