13. Diesel Locos (Type 5: 3000hp+ ) - Classes 59 - 60
1st June 2006

The small fleet of 59s were purchased for use by Yeoman, ARC and National Power. They have seen a wide variety of liveries, most of which are featured, reflecting the gradual change in ownership of these locos.

The British built 60s were introduced in the late 1980s, but have since fallen from favour, with only a small percentage being used 20 years after construction.
