These
rugged diesel locos (Rangeer Loks/Loc in the Nederlands), built to a standard British design (powered by English Electric 6KT diesel engines), have
been the main diesel shunter in Britain and Holland
for approximatley five decades - in both Industrial & Mainline applications.
Due
to thier ease of use, ease of maintenance and high reliability these
diesel shunters are popular with mainline operators and private railways
- handling most requirements asked of them with ease. When used in conjunction with our turn-key maintenance (& even operation) solutions, these shunters can provide an effective low-cost hire or lease solution compared to new-build alternatives.
The
six coupled wheelbase is capable of negotiating the tight radius
curves found in many of the smaller yards and sidings.
Available
for both long & short term hire/lease in Great Britian &
Europe.
Additional
options for hire/lease;
- Re-painting
into your own corporate colours.
