Class 92's & 73138 join stored 60's in Brush Yard..! Plus NEW GBRf Imported LOCOS 66311 & 66313

More locos added to the car park storage at the former Brush works at Loughborough..!
The 4 x Class 92's have recently been moved from Worksop to Loughborough, with 73138 making the move also.
The locos now stored in the car park are as follows -
Class 60's (Since 2022) -
60008, 60009, 60038, 60061, 60061, 60070, 60080, 60090
Class 73 -
73138
Class 92's -
92021, 92040, 92045, 92046
Also seen at the storage area at the far side of the works are a couple of the new locos recently imported for GBRf - These are to be 66311 and 66313 once the next stages of their commissioning for then UK network is completed.
Hope you enjoy the video! Thanks for watching

Seeing those locos are a reminder that the 60s and 92s were the last diesel and electric locos designed and built by a British company for mainline use in the UK.

[@trainsplanes]

Crazy to think that’s the case - It was so long ago now also..

Totally agree

So sad to see them just rotting away, love 92 and 60s as well

If you think that'd sad, pop over to toton yard, trees growing around them in the sidings,

[@andykey6742]

If you look carefully....the stands under 73138 are some of the ones used for class 52, from swindon works.

[@lrvproductions]

The 60s rotting away are honestly a sad sight

[@pinza55007]

Excellent footage, well controlled flying. Saw some drone footage of Toton the other day, at least they've lined them up neatly before killing them. To be fair, sad though it is, it's the only way to keep the better examples of the fleet running, as spares off the shelf are non existent. This has always been accepted practice even going back to steam days.

[@johneaton25]

Thank you for posting 👍

[@michaelnewman1920]

Great filming, very well done, thanks for sharing

[@Johnny16781]

Great one thank you for the info ,

[@KingstonHomeMaintenance]

I worked those 60s when they where brand new, used them for the Tilcon train, replaced two 37s. Had a nasty habit of failing though.

[@ianmacdougall8229]

That would be great if we can at least see them restored for display purposes.

[@NorthWestLevelCrossingsChannel]

Excellent video as always 👍

[@TrainsBoatsPlanes]

Great Video. Well filmed.

[@TLGvideos]

Great video. 👍🏻

[@terrier_productions]

The fact that some 60s still have their Load Haul livery is concerning. I would love to see more 60s & 92s on the mainline but it looks like that won’t be the case

[@robertstibz9506]

You see when all the loco's BR had where "given" away, their new owners did not care to give any TLC, that's why Toton yard is full of run down 60s that they got dirt cheap, plus all those scrapped locos

[@johnclarke2997]

@@robertstibz9506 No point in giving TLC to the old BR locos when they have the class 66. Much more reliable and well supported by EMD. Customers were happy to have the class 66 replace the old BR fleet. Most of the BR fleet had already reached the end of its service life and BR knew this, but BR were unable for various reason to buy new British locos in large quantities.

[@Hascienda27]

Never know, if we’re lucky, might get one working loco out off all them soares 😂

[@mattdandex]

Are those class 60 and 92s ever going to see active use again? The 92s look quite clean and up to standards

[@trainsplanes]

No chance imo - These will all be donor locos now.

[@harrymcandrew1447]

the 60s look like there hoping to see active use again some look quiet sad

[@timstrainvideos142]

well filmed. hopefully at least a few can be reactivated or re-engineered. maybe some more 92s can be exported.

[@tobyytlai]

Really hope some of them will make it out

[@moxon2313]

Great Video of the DCR 60's at the Old Brush Works but I noticed that in the Description below - 60061 is twice and I think that it should be 60064?

[@trainspottingwithdanYT]

What are they doing with the bogies of the locos? Also has that freightliner 66 just had the livery put on as that logo on the side looks a lot different colour to the rest

[@trainsplanes]

The bogies have already been donated to other locos. It’ll only be a matter of time for all other usage components to be salvaged also.

[@richardhooper7297]

Those 92's look well canibalised!

[@trainsplanes]

Agreed - They’ve been heavily robbed already 💯

[@BritishRail60062]

Is it possible that 60008 could be bought as a display only locomotive? I would love to see that one shipped to the US and donated to the Illinois Railroad Museum. As for engine size. I wonder if the GE 7FDL16 would fit in the Class 60? Great video by the way mate.

[@rearspeaker6364]

wonder if MTU makes a 3-4000hp engine that will fit, with euro6 complance?

[@paulaynsley1382]

Does anyone know why these locos are at Loughborough? Is it just to cannibalise them for spare parts to keep the 60s, 73s and 92s going which are still in active work?

[@TFGtransport]

HOW DARE THEY. I LOVE THE CLASS 60 AND 92S I HOPE THEY GET OUT OF THAT PRISON.

[@ianblack669]

Hi, just getting back into spotting againafter a few years out, could you or anyone tell me if you can view these locosfrom anywhere? 60090 in particular as it's 1 of my last one's, excellent video by the way. Cheers

[@trainsplanes]

There is a view from the security gate however the staff will be at your quickly. The best option is from the adjoining field which is accessible off the main road. Wellies are 100% needed though as the access is a lake currently. 👍

[@ianblack669]

OK cheers for that it'll be Xmas weekend probably if I'm lucky. Much appreciated.

[@philwignall6714]

60090 was my last one too. Think I’ve only seen it once. I’d say these locos stand a better chance of survival than the demics at Toton.

[@leswall3061]

The value in scrap, you'd think they'd sent to the scrapman

[@michael_gates]

Does anyone know if you can access the yard via public road to view these locomotives - or do you require permission/permit?

[@warrenhardcastle8858]

Can these be seen from Meadow lane or is there a better spot ?

[@trainsplanes]

The best view is from the field adjacent - Take wellies though as it gets wet in there 👍

[@BensTransport]

I have no idea why those 92s are there! DB could still use them for their contracts from Daventry to Dollands Moor and back

Could someone please explain why the Class 60's and 92's have ended up like this? I seem to recall that the 92's were extremely complicated machines--was this also the case with the 60's? Also, does anyone know the fate of that 73? Thanks!

[@al66class59]

@@dizzy2020 DCR are contemplating returning some of the 60s to working order if/when their business workload increases. 60098, as the thousandth Brush-built loco, will likely be among any brought back to use. That said, no obvious repair work has so far been done, and I'd assume the extent to which anything's been done to these ones in recent times is removal of parts to maintain the four locos already in traffic.

[@beeble2003]

@@dizzy2020 "Worth nothing that a major shareholder in EWS when this was happened was a US company so they'd likely much prefer US-made locos?" Why would they care which country the locomotives were built in? They cared about reliability and running costs, and the 60s had not much of the former and too much of the latter.

[@trevhopkins9108]

Could the 60s be converted like the 56s to 69s?

[@al66class59]

GBRf are looking at it. 60014 at Longport has been heavily stripped out for conversion feasibility assessment work to be undertaken, but one thing has been established already - no EMDs. They don't fit (EWS found that out some years ago!) Most likely to get a Caterpillar engine if any are rebuilt.
