56 006 Railfest York 2004

            Still owned by EWS at the time, although already withdrawn and in storage 56 006 makes for a fine sight in BR blue at the 2004 Railfest event at The National Railway Museum in York.
This was one of the early Class 56's built at Electroputere Works in Romania which was a Communist Country at the time. 56 006 was introduced on British Railways in 1977 and withdrawn on 2003. 

In 2016, a quick Google suggests that this locomotive is still owned by DBS (who had since bought out EWS) but in operational condition based at Barrow Hill Roundhouse in Chesterfield.
