Description

66765 GBNB MOUNTFLD 894E19CJ30 6 * DONCDNDCY N

GB Railfreight's class 66/7 (JT42CWRM) number 66765 . Here it is photographed hauling empty gypsum containers mounted on flat wagons from Mountfield Sidings (GBRf) East Sussex to Doncaster Down Decoy (4E19) on 30 October 2014. To comply with gas emission regulations limestone (CaCO3) delivered to the power station (by other trains) is used to remove sulfur dioxide (SO2) from the flue gasses, by converting it into gypsum (CaSO4·2H2O). The waste product (gypsum) is then delivered to British Gypsum's Robertsbridge Works by train where it is used to manufacture plaster and plasterboard.

Numbers of the wagons being hauled were 640641, 640678, 640647, 640690, 640642, 640901, 640661, 640633, 640673, 640674, 640688, 640644, 640682, 640634, 640660, 640651, 640657 and 640666.

66765 (works number 20128816-00?) was built by Progress Rail Services (a subsidiary of Caterpillar Incorporated) in Muncie, Indiana, USA in 2014, from where it was hauled dead in tow to Norfolk, Virginia before being transported by sea and unloaded from the Heavy Lift Ship MV "The Industrial Eagle" at Newport Docks on 7 September 2014.
