Digital signalling installed on first DB Cargo Class 66 locomotive

DB Cargo UK has completed fitting in-cab signalling to one of its Class 66 freight locomotives, No. 66070.

Locomotive named after Lancashire maintenance depot

Class 66 No. 66745 has been named Wigan Springs Branch by GB Railfreight after one of GBRf’s key seasonal maintenance hubs.

Freight operator GB Railfreight has revealed that its final leased Akiem locomotive 66/3 (66316) is ready to enter traffic.

Some of DB Cargo’s Class 66 locomotives are being modified with different gear ratios that will enable them to haul heavier loads.
