Description

66206 WBAT DOLLANDSM 894E26CE07 4 * SCUNTHPRS N

DB Schenker Rail (UK) Ltd's class 66 (JT42CWR) number 66206 in English, Welsh and Scottish Railway maroon livery with zigzag gold band, large number and EWS logo is photographed working from Dollands Moor sidings to Scunthorpe Redbourne sidings on 7 February 2015. This service returns empty FIA 'Multifret' twin intermodal flat wagons used to transport steel for export in billet form from Tata Steels Scunthorpe complex on South Humberside in Lincolnshire (see Andy Pictons photo) to a freight yard at Ebange in Eastern France via Dollands Moor and Calais Fréthun through the Channel Tunnel (click here for the route). Laurent Knop photographed Euro Cargo Rail's loco number E 186-317 at Valenciennes (Nord - department 59) hauling loaded wagons working from Calais Fréthun to Ebange on 2 April 2014. Nicolas Tomaszewski also videoed a loaded train passing Beuvrages hauled by Euro Cargo Rail's E186 162-4. Once in Ebange the steel is used at Tata's Hayange rail mill to produce rail for SNCF's LGV Est européenne construction programme to extend the French high-speed rail network.

According to Tomblebee numbers of the wagons being hauled were 7049385352, 7049381211, 7049387044, 7049385147, 7049387075, 7049381211, 7049387044, 7049385147, 7049387075, 7049385121, 7049383167, 7049380072, 7049387184, 7049387158, 7049381799 and 7049381302.

66206 (works number 968702-206) was built by General Motors Electro-Motive Division, London, Ontario, Canada in 1999 and unloaded from the Heavy Lift Ship MV "Stellaprima" at Newport Docks on 23 March 2000.
