| Towards
the end of the working life of the class 85's, a few of the engines in
better condition were re-numbered as 85/1's here is one such example,
85109 |
 |
| The 85's had distinctively different sides.
85008 shows the side with four windows, compare with 85109 above which
shows the side with all the grilles |
 |
| In the early 1990's, the sector ownership and
livery didn't preclude the locomotive being used on other duties. Parcels
red no. 86419 "Post Haste" is on a Speedlink service |
 |
| "Talyllyn" was briefly numbered 86501 as part
of a short lived sub-class 86/5, which were 86/2's regeared for use on
Freightliner duties and restricted to a maximum speed of 75 mph.
It has now reverted to 86258 |
 |
| Very few locomotives carried the Railfreight
"General" logo. One such example was 86627 "The Industrial Society",
seen here with 86634 "University of London" which is adorned with the more
common distribution logo. |
 |
| The unique thyristor control testbed, 87101
"Stephenson" was adopted by Railfreight Distribution and as such became
the only 87 to carry Railfreight livery. |
 |
| Once again a bit of "cross-sectorization, InterCity
liveried 87009 "City of Birmingham" on a Freightliner. |
 |
| 90034 in the rather vague "Mainline" livery arrives
from the south with a pair of dead class 85's |
 |
| Like the class 85's, the class 90's have two
distinct sides, one with two grilles and one with four. 90037
is the leading locomotive |
 |
| Der Deutchenliveried electrischlok 90129 "Frachtverbindungen"
waits to invade England. |
 |
| A view which shows just how common the class
90's are at Mossend, how many can you spot! |
 |
| And finally! The load bank test locomotive ADB
968021, formerly Glasgow built 84009 is seen being towed through the yard
by an unidentified class 47. |
