Class 66's

[Signalman]

Six Metronet branded Class 66 locos set foot on London Underground metals for the first time this morning. They are being used for track replacement on the Metropolitan line.

The track replacement is taking place between Harrow-on-the-Hill and Amersham/Chesham on the "main", in particular the Watford South Junction area.

A few pics of them being delivered on NR are found here:
