Ninety Nighty

Freightliner Class 90, 90049 heads north through Hartford with the Caledonian Sleeper Down Highlander.

 

With all ten of the GB Railfreight Class 92s with CAF mods to work the new Mk5 stock configured to 1500V ETS, hired-in Class 90s from Freightliner are being used to work the Caledonian Sleeper Highlander whilst it remains the old Mk2/Mk3 stock (900V ETS).

 

With the Mk5s finally expected to be rolled-out in September, the end of the Class 90s' long association with the sleeper is nigh after many years.
