Class 66s used to be made in London Ontario before Caterpillar shut the plant down and moved production to the States.

I wish they were sending the SD60M over here...

It was 30 years that I booked the ocean transport for the first 4 Class 59 units that EMD sold to Foster Yeoman. They were the predecessors to the Class 66's that run all over the UK and Europe.

They are so tiny compared to our power.

How are these coupled?

"Tiny" and shaped like a European tunnel. Look at that flat car -- four wheels -- I assume it's a transition car for coupling.

It would appear that this order for GBRF will be the last Class 66's to be built.

I tell you, British Diesels keep getting uglier and uglier. No offense. These are the last of the decent looking ones. Nothing like the Class 37s which I thought looked very nice, or the Deltics.

Nice shot! I took a picture of this same locomotive on an NS consist three days earlier in Knoxville.
