  • A big change around in the position of the legacy stored DB class 90's at Crewe TMD over the last week in Sep-23.
    This video shows the locos now all grouped together in new positions near to Wistaston Road. The video doesn't show the shunting moves itself as I wasn't present when these moves were made however it shows you how they've now been arranged.
    These are the DB locos that have recently been put up for sale via tender exercise. These are the locos which have been parked up for many years and not to be confused this the DB class 90's which have been working until recent times which are in warm storage next to the main depot building which you can see later in the video.
    The 12 locos DB has put up for sale are as follows -
    90017, 90018, 90022, 90023, 90025, 90027, 90030, 90031, 90032, 90033, 90038 & 90040.
    Here's the link to the DB website detailing the sale and how to buy one if you wish!

    Hope you enjoy the video! Thanks for watching.

    Its really quite digusting that they've been left to get into this state before putting them up for sale... its as though they just want them to go for scrap... and it seems to me that they have something against actual British built locos.

      To be fair to DB, they were all already stored when DB came along, I do think they could have had the active 90s busier for longer and on more services other than MALCOLM

      All the class 90s, a number of 92s and that 60 at the end of the stored line are those stored ... there's a number of dysons (92s) still active - including the recently painted and overhauled 92029 seen towards the end with another EWS beasties grey 92 and maintained here along with the 325s and a number of 67s as well

    Wonderful footage again. What's the guide price for forlorn loco's nowadays?
    Back in the 80's I jumped on creating a Class 40 shares idea, on hearing 4,000 was the price for long term outside stored... didn't sell any shares because I had no idea how to register a company or how to move a loco (and was only 14 anyway lol). But, it's always interested me whether I was told the truth.

      Freightliner would be the best bet, they could overhaul 18, 40 and a number of the active fleet like 90029 ... the active members could be stripped of DB logos and gradually painted into Freightliner and the LTS members like 90025 and co could be donors for Freightliners 90s for years to come.

      ​@A-Trainspotter-From-Berkshire yes, that's what I said .. the ones officially for sale are the Long term stored ones .. those are unlikely to ever run .. aside from 90018 and 90040 which were both active prior to 2020. The others are long term stored. The recently active ones are the interesting ones to see what happens to them

    I wonder what possessed them to move them, 90025 has in itself become a piece of art, surely ? sat at the end of that siding ... i notice 90040 and 90018 arent sat with those, and there is space for them by the looks of it ... very peculiar ...

      Guess they've been moved to make it easier for their removal from the site; from where they are its literally straight down the depot approach driveway, onto Wistaston Road and away.
