I don't think Foster Yeoman designed anything. From Wikipedia

"Following Foster Yeoman's dissatisfaction with the availability and reliability of British Rail's Class 56 diesel freight locomotive and their satisfaction with their EMD SW1001shunter, four Class 59/0s were ordered from EMD and arrived in 1986. A new design to the British loading gauge and specifications, derived from the EMD SD40-2, it used the cab layout of the British Rail Class 58 to aid driver assimilation.
They were the first US-built (and privately owned) diesel locomotives to operate regularly on the British main line. However, EMD powered locomotives have been the mainstay in both the Republic of Ireland since 1961 and Northern Ireland since 1980.
Following Foster Yeoman's example, ARC purchased four (Class 59/1) and National Power purchased six (Class 59/2) locomotives. Foster Yeoman and ARC merged their rail concerns into Mendip Rail, and the rail interests of National Power were taken over by EWS, now DB Schenker Rail (UK) Ltd.
Ultimately EMD's diligence and flexibility in designing and constructing such a small order paid off in opening the way for the later, much larger, Class 66 order. This design shares a common body shell but is internally different. The only livery shared between the classes is EWS red and gold, but whereas the 66s have a zigzag gold stripe, the 59s' stripe is straight."

Oh dear someone who actually belives WIKI:hehe: I would tell Foster Yeoman that and also The railway centre and also Platform 5 as they all have the first one built in 1984 and dilvered that year too

Nope the 66's were born out of the Class 59's which Somerset based agregate company Foster Yeoman who designed the first Class 59 in 1984. HTH

I'm excellent at toggling Tony, I've had lots of practice over the years.....:hehe:

No, I haven't got the NSE 47's incidentally, they'll do very nicely for Angela's WCL layout and the West Sussex route that came out a few weeks ago, thanks for pointing me in the right direction......I'll keep an eye out for future reskins, you guys are doing us all proud....

An ex-LBSCR A1x class "Terrier" with a summer holiday train passes the disused signal box at Linley, since replaced with a smaller structure right next to the platform (about 400 metres away).
