92016 WFBC DOLLANDSM 896B20CA11 4 * WEMBLEYYD N 15D A

Having waited months for a 92 to haul something past here in daylight, when I can get out, two turn up in a few days (92 number 015 also worked <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/99279135@N05/22407791597">6B37</a> on 6 November 2015). 92016 was also photographed later on route working 6B41 by Nigel Gould at <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/northamptontoffeeman/22323914224">Northampton</a>.

DB Schenker Rail (UK) Ltd's class 92 number 92016 (previously named "Brahms") painted in Deutsche Bahn cherry red with DB Schenker branding and a three 'O' shaped channel tunnel logo works 6B20 from Dollands Moor to Wembley European Freight Operations Centre on 11 November 2015 hauling 27 Tonne (tare du wagon) G.E. Rail Services owned IZA (GE117CT Hfirrs 3) semi-perminantly coupled 4-wheeled CARGOWAGGON vans with shared running numbers built by Duewag. Having started out in France and passed through the channel tunnel each pair of vans is used to transport approximately 59,000 litters (59 Tonnes) of Danone bottled mineral water (<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/99279135@N05/14519696692">eau minerale</a>) in crates of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) bottles such as Evian imported from Évian-les-Bains in the French Alps and <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/99279135@N05/15096320948/">Volvic</a> from the Massif Central. Evian bottled at the SAEME plant Post is transported by train (for a map of the route <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/99279135@N05/15383012296/">click here</a>) from Évian-les-Bains to the UK via Publier, (Bellegarde Longeray or Annemasse?), Culoz, Ambérieu-en-Bugey, Bourg-en-Bresse, Louhans, Gevrey-Chambertin, Dijon-Perrigny, Chalons-en-Champagne, Reims, Longueau and Calais-Frethun. For Volvic the <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/99279135@N05/15383012296/">route</a> is thought to be from the SEV bottling plant in Riom to the UK via Gannat, Saincaize, Vierzon, Valenton (Paris), Longueau and Calais Frethun. From Wembley this train continues on route to Crick under headcode 6B41 and is ultimately unloaded at a distribution warehouse at Daventry International Rail Freight Terminal (DIRFT).

A similar set of cargowaggon vans was photographed by Nicolas Villenave on 9 May 2014 returning empty passing through Écaillon (department Nord) on their way from <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/119085393@N02/14147711054/">Calais Frethun to Culoz railway junction</a> in the Ain department in the Rhône-Alpes region of France, by Mattias Catry at <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/50604235@N05/7969763184/">Boisleux-au-Mont</a> on 9 September 2012 and by Laurent Knop at <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/x4644/13156920803/">Béthisy-St.-Pierre, Picardie</a> in the Oise department on 12 March 2014. 92016 (works number BT1078) was built by the Brush Traction Company at Loughborough in 1994.

In September 2017 the transformer of 92016 was found to have been cracked and the locomotive dragged away for storage. When working from the overhead wires the 25 kV AC power must be converted to 1370 volt AC so that it can be used by a class 92 locomotives traction motors. This is done by the transformer which is positioned underneath the locomotive towards the cab 2 end of the common zone but much of it is obscured by the batteries and transformer tank filled with oil used for cooling and insulation.
