R30532TXS Hornby OO Gauge RailRoad EWS Class 66 Lafarge Charnwood 66022 - Sound Fitted
Details
Entering service in 1998, this was one of the original 250 locomotives ordered for EWS. Funded by Locomotion Capital Ltd, it was leased to EWS until December 2008.
No. 66022 was one of 60 locomotives sub-let to its Euro Cargo Rail subsidiary in France, starting in June 2006. It was then sold to Angel Trains, who leased it to DB Schenker Rail UK, but the locomotive remained in service in France, returning to the UK for heavy maintenance when required via the Channel Tunnel. Today it is part of the DB Cargo fleet.
Our RailRoad replica model is a faithful representation of the Class 66 locomotive, with added durability and pre-fitted with a DCC sound chip for extra authenticity.
