As part of a restructuring, EWS offered several locomotives for sale and 66250 was acquired by GBRF in 2017 and was allocated the new number 66789. Unveiled on the 27th Feb 2018, 66789 sports a homage to the British Rail large logo blue livery to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the formation of British Railways back in 1948.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Accurascale","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52389218582810,"sku":"ACC2035","price":1.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0953\/8148\/7898\/files\/accurascale-acc2035-class-66-number-66789-diesel-loco.webp?v=1782269972","url":"https:\/\/modeltrainsdirect.co.nz\/products\/accurascale-acc2035-dcc-class-66-oo-gauge-diesel-loco-br-blue-with-large-logo-dcc-sound-fitted","provider":"Model Trains Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
