The last-ever batch of Class 66 locomotives to be built for the UK by Electro-Motive Diesels has arrived at Newport Docks, South Wales.
The locomotives, Nos. 66773 to 66779, were conveyed from Norfolk, Virginia, aboard the BigLift ship, Happy Dragon, and are now in the process of being unloaded. It is believed that the locos should move north to the EMD Depot at Roberts Road, Doncaster, on Monday.
