[BE/NL] Rail Feeding 561-03 enters service

Home GM / EMD / Progress Rail JT42CWR(M/-T1) / Class 66 Beacon Rail Leasing Class 66 [BE/NL] Rail Feeding 561-03 enters service

It has been a while since the locomotive was first seen in its new livery, but Beacon Rail 561-03 has entered service for Rail Feeding after a re-fit of its Bombardier ETCS system. The new equipment allows the locomotive to be operated on TBL1+ equipped routes in Belgium. For the moment, the locomotive will mainly be operated in and around Antwerp.
