Class 57 goes into Advenza Freight livery

Formed Freightliner Class 57/0 No. 57006 has been outshopped from Brush Barclay at Kilmarnock in full Advenza Freight livery.

The new colour is Oxford blue, offset by standard yellow warning ends, small bodyside numbers to the rear of the drivers side cab door and a stylized Advenza Freight logo on the bodyside in yellow, apart from the 'v' which is in green.

All three of the Advenza Class 57/0s are booked for re-paint at Kilmarnock, with No. 57005 due to arrive w/e 15 February, followed by No. 57004.

* Work at the former Hunslet-Barclay plant in Kilmarnock, now operated by Brush Traction will continue with Class 57 repaints in the near future, with the four First Great Western Class 57/6s due to pass through the shops for modifications and repaint into First Group blue livery.
