GBRf's 66761 is having it's Wensleydale Railway nameplates removed and transferred to another 66, apparently because '66761 is required for a very specific naming later in the year'.

Anyone know what this naming is and why it specifically has to be 761 that takes that name?

I have read somewhere that total uk servicemen killed in ww1 was 761000 would that be relevant to it being 761 selected perhaps as some form of memorial naming?
