GBRf class 66779
GBRf class 66779 Evening Star at Orton Mere railway station on the 9th September 2017.
This GBRf class 66 was the last class 66 built for the UK and European markets because new class 66s cannot pass the new more stringent emission regulations. GBRf has named this locomotive 'Evening Star' and painted it in lined brunswick green, as was the last British Railways steam locomotive 9F 2-10-0 Evening Star. It even has a British Railways (late) lion logo as well as a steam shed plate. There is also a bell.
This locomotive was at the NVR just for this event.

This website is Ukrailways1970tilltoday.me.uk it is on railways but it is not just on trains but all things railways, with photos, which I have taken from the 1970s till now. I take photos of all things railways, steam diesel and electric trains, signal boxes, wagons any thing that is on the National Rail network, which was BR when I started taking photos
This page is on The Nene Valley Railway Mixed Trafic Gala in 2017
Today ,LNER, Hull trains and Greater Anglia are just some of the names on the trains. The name on the train does not mean, thats whos train it is these days. These names keep changing, but that means I have to keep taking photos. I also take photos of preserved railways with steam diesel and electric trains.There is lots more to add and I keep taking More!
