With the sectorisation of the railways in the 1990s, 26 of the 50 Class 90s were transferred to the Railfreight Sector, and reclassified as Class 90/1. A number of them were later reclassified to 90/2, but soon reverted back. A rather scruffy 90140, in Railfreight Distribution colours, sits at Crewe. Sat26Nov94. Scanned
