Looking for all intents and purposes like a Class 66 59203 brings the 12.34 Acton to Crawley loaded stone train through Kensington Olympia station. 59203 was one of a second batch of the class that arrived on the UK shores during the summer of 1995. The first batch of the class, that arrived some ten years prior to this, really broke the mould of UK locomotive design and production being entirely produced from beginning to end in North America and were a clear sign of things to come.
