Home News Archive 2013-09-06 - [GB] DRS to receive 10 Vossloh dual-mode locos

DRS is to receive 10 new locomotives from Vossloh. In stead of additional Class 68 UKLight locomotives, the rail operator from Carlisle is to receive 10 dual-mode locos, which are to be designated as Class 88. DRS is launching customer for Vossloh dual-mode locomotives. The Class 88 will be suitable for 25kV overhead power and has an additional 1250 hp diesel engine. - RI


MLD: An impression was made by Railcolor.net with the EURO 4000 DUAL as a starting point, although we expect the Class 88 to be based on the Class 68 design.
