Built as a joint venture between Vossloh Espaņa and Stadler Rail Group the class 68s will receive no accolades for their elegance! In my eyes, for a modern design, they appear clumsy. But, who am I to comment as one who cut his spotting teeth on the simple but beautiful smooth and uncluttered lines of Westerns! Here, 68029 'Destroyer' is seen tucked just inside the maintenance shed at DRS's Crewe Gresty Bridge depot.
