History
Thirty of these locomotives were built for EWS by Alstom in Spain in 1999/2000 as replacements for Class 47s. They were for use mainly on Royal Mail trains, but after mail contracts were lost in 2003/4, they have been used on passenger trains. Transferred to DB Cargo by 2015, 67015 spent a period on lease to Wrexham & Shropshire trains and was named ‘David J. Lloyd’.
It is now one of a dozen leased to Transport for Wales for its premium services, currently running in DB Schenker red, and used in push-pull mode with Mk4 coaches and a DVT (Driving Van Trailer).
