66403?

[Dave R]

Evening all,

66403 passed down (south) through Barnt Green at around 1630, looked like it was loaded scrap metal.

Not used to seeing DRS locos in my neck of the wood, so what was the origin/destination and is it a regular runner?

Cheers, Dave

It's a GBRf loco nowadays

and within a few months it wont exist anymore... well not as 66403 anyway...
will be 66735

only 66402 and 66403 left to be overhauled and renumbered ... atleast from the 66401-66405 batch

Loco was on 6Z97 13:43 BESTNSML - TIDALSDGS

Too rusty on TOPS to retrieve a consist, sorry

If anyone can tell me input to get a consist I can do that, best by PM though

To expand on the previous post, it was a Beeston to Cardiff working
booked to run two or three times a week, which GBRf took over from
DB Schenker a couple of months ago.

To confuse matters further, there is also a Stockton to Cardiff Tidal
scrap train on Friday afternoons, which *is* operated by DRS!
