47851 leading 37676 on the returning Jorvic Growler ECS 		<b> 28th October 2009</b> --- With the Tesco Express contract being taken over by DB Schenker in about 2weeks time. The Eddie Stobart livery carried by 66411 and 66414, is soon to become history. When the contract finishes with DRS the stobart stickers will surely be removed. However, DBS have already repainted 92017 (Bart) into Stobart livery, and 66124 is following. There have been some good workings in the South West this month, including D1015 on Silver bullets, Br Blue 31106 on a test train, D7017 on WSR freight and 66704 on a FGW move. Adding a name to that list was Stobart liveried '66411' which today made its 'maiden' appearance in the South West when it was paired up with DRS Compass liveried 66422 on the 6V74 Crewe Coal Sidings to Bridgwater nuclear flasks. Eddie the Engine awaits to depart Bridgwater compound with the 6M67 Bridgwater to Crewe Coal sidings return nukes. Nice meeting, Cellophane Steve, Cam, LJS, 47840chaser and co. The only other stobart liveried loco to visit the South West, was 47832 when the Stobart Pullman was operating.
