Golborne, Ashton Road, Freightliner 70008 6Z19 (08.07 Shap Summit - Crewe Basford Hall) 12/02/25.

            Freightliner 70008 repainted with its special yellow and green livery as a nod to the company’s 60th Anniversary. 
FL 70008 works south this morning through Golborne with the (MWO) Shap - Basford Hall stone.
When sold by BR, Freightliner used a version of the old BR two-tone grey livery before moving to a new green livery with yellow cabs first for Class 57s and then the 66's.
The takeover by Genesee and Wyoming saw a break from this, with a striking orange and black livery which has been retained and is still being applied to Class 08s, 66's, 90's and more recently 70020.
