It would be hard to find something uglier.
They are to become class 70 in the UK. i wonder what nickname will they get.
I'm afraid it's sadly symbolic of a nation that no longer builds anything (except banks!) and has to import all of its major engineering products. Unfortunately, Britain's got what it deserves after 30 years of the wrong economic and industrial policies.
Totally agree, British locos to me look so ugly!
Nuff said for me on that subject, energy efficient or not at least make the darn thing look half good.
Cheers,

These are hardly British looking locos in the slightest...
Nickname: 'Bricks' comes to mind.
