Hornby GBRf, HS2 Class 66, Co-Co, 66796 'The Green Progressor' - Era 11
Product Code: R30151
Production Details:
While the Class 66s began their
service in 1998, No. 66004s unique livery and service
reflect a modern preoccupation with promoting
environmental awareness.The HS2 owned locomotive is part
of an active drive to promote the environmental benefits
of delivering construction materials by rail instead of
road, which inspired the name 'The Green Progressor'.
The intention is that for every locomotive HS2 uses to
transport aggregates and construction materials, up to
76 lorries are removed from the UK's roads and motorway
network. 'The Green Progressor' is both innovative and a
benefit of tradition; in returning focus to our beloved
railways we boost efficiency and reduce emissions.
