Goodbye RES 90!

[RJ]

Unsurprisingly with EWS' strict livery policies, 90019 is losing its RES livery in favour of the red and gold. Shame, but oh well!

When is it's last run?

 

[Coxster]

Today!

D'oh - never got a picture of it!

What a crying shame. There goes another "unique" livery. Goodbye RES alute: (cos there's nothind else still running in RES is there?) Good job I got pics on the Norwich-London services.

EWS have a few parcels vans in RES running between Bescot and Scotland on a DHL, I believe, contract.

This is sad news now no working locos are left in RES now 90016 has gone to FL. But IMO RES looked better on a 86 but sadly RES 86s are not long gone just like RES 47s...

But EWS bought RES about 10 years ago so its hardly surprising... Anyone know if 90027 is still going in RfD?

*sighs* another mainline livery succumed to the dreaded red/gold.rotest:
I bet EWS is only splashing out on a full scale repaint because they cant stick a big messy vinyl on the side due to the bodyside design...

loads of red duffs still lying around, a few preserved aswell...

Yes, you can stick an EWS "three beasties" logo sticker on a 90, 90022 has the addition to its RfD livery.

Oh I forgot about that one, EWS probably thinks their vinyl would not suit a red and black loco:-P
