EWS #66128, Barry, Glamorgan, Wales (UK), 2012

EWS still operate a large proportion of the freight trains in Britain, and their primary locomotive, as planned, has become the Class 66, built by GMLG in London, Ontario during the late 1990's and early 2000's. I remember when these were being delivered, and they still look new today. GMLG, or General Motors Locomotive Group, has since been sold off by GM and is now known as EMD, an older name denoting Electro-Motive Division, which GM used from 1942 to 1990 to denote locomotives built at the old Electro-Motive plant in LaGrange, Illinois, although the new EMD is based in London, Ontario.
