70012...
Unloaded from the Beluga Endurance to the quayside at Newport Docks today a
structurally impaired 70012 (DHLT) has been deposited on a trailer. This trailer
is to enable movement within the Docks, it is not of a type that has to be used
to move a locomotive of this tonnage over the UK road network.
DBS / Eurosheds notes...
09201, which was despatched to Knottingley before 09106 was brought back to
Toton the other day, has been reinstated to the WSSI pool. 09106 is now stored
WNYX at Toton. 08706 (WSSI) has been moved up by road from Tidal to Toton being
noted on a low loader traversing the M50 heading for the M5 on the morning of
the 8th. 66187 has been reinstated to the WBAI pool from WNTR at Toton whilst
67009 is reinstated to the WABN pool from WNTR at Crewe EMD. 67016 has been
stored WNTR at Crewe EMD. 66062 (WBES) appears to be stopped again at Toton
whilst 66191 (WBEN) has reached Dollands Moor. 66028 and 66243 (both WBEN) have
moved from Crewe to Wembley. 66033 and 66249 (both WBEN) are still at Dollands
Moor whilst 66029 66071 and 66245 (all WBEN) are at Toton.

Ouch...
Last January it was ouch for DBS and 66048 when it ran away in Scotland, coming
to grief at Carrbridge. This January it's ouch for freightliner and brand new
70012 (DHLT) which has been damaged whilst being lifted out of the ship at
Newport. Reportedly from about 20 feet in the air, during the unloading process,
something evidently going completely wrong, 70012 was dropped back into the hold
of the Beluga Endurance. Obviously the damage to the locomotive will have to be
assessed but early indications suggest that 70012 is likely to be beyond
economic repair.
70s...
70008 and 70009 have been reallocated from DHLT to the DFGI pool whilst 70010
and 70011 have been reallocated to the DFGH pool. 70012 remains allocated tot he
DHLT pool.
