Hello,

Does anyone know what the status is of 37069/218/423 or 37401/2?

Also anyone know when the just sold DRS 37s (37407/19/22/24/25/716) are due to move?

Thanks,

Caleb

This was 37069 on Leicester last week. Think 218/423 are about due a test run.

407 at Crewe Coal Yard awaiting release from DRS
423 at Leicester LIP awaiting mainline tests

069/218/407/423 will be painted into normal europhoenix livery unless hired by ROG who would paint the locos in their livery.
Edit: 510/601/884 will be prioritised to get a new livery.

Looks like 37407 is going to be dragged by one of the ROG 37s to Leicester. https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:R13188/2024-05-13/detailed

I read somewhere that 37407 will stay in Large Logo for a while because the loco livery looks fine. Probably will get a repaint anyway.
