New Livery for GB Railfreight Class 66 Number 66747
GB Railfreight locomotive class 66 number 66747 has received a new livery.
66747 was repainted at Eastleigh paint shop last week, into Newell and Wright Transport livery. Based in Sheffield, and with a container depot in Masborough, Newell & Wright Transport provide haulage and container logistics service so it’s likely GBRf have formed a partnership with them. Could we be expecting another naming ceremony some time soon?
This news follows a number of recent rebrands into promotional partner liveries from numerous freight operating companies; such as 66587 in pink livery (As ONE We Can), and DB Cargo’s new 66109 PD Ports and Maritime liveries.
66747 will work 0330 0Z66 Eastleigh East Yard to London Gateway GBRf on Monday 8th July 2019. Path below. A naming ceremony will take place at London Gateway, and following this, 66747 will work 4L00 and 4E00 all week between London Gateway and Masborough N&W.

I woul love to see a conrail class 66 would be cool
GBRF 66731 NHS Blue & Orange livery
In order to update the multicoloured GBRF fleet I would add 666731 as mentioned above along with 66791 Beacon Rail GBRF Blue. The recent new comers imported from Germany 66793 & 66794 although in there own variant of Beacon Rail Blue, do slightly difffer to 66791 since it’s repaint over here, but thats upto you?
