Ok Colas that's a livery for every loco you have, superb

[@spectrumtrains]

I agree with that. It's possibly best-looking 67 around .

[@50037]

Nice video 👍 last time I spent a day on Oxford 58's were working the Didcot MGR's

I like the DB red “sheds”… 🇬🇧🇺🇸👍

[@spectrumtrains]

Yes, they do look smart.

Great variety of workings on that day normally it’s just the traffic going to Southampton docks and back-although it’s a busy route it can sometimes get samey if you know what I mean.Really enjoyed watching this subbed

[@spectrumtrains]

Very true, thanks for watching 👀

[@matzk0840]

nice catches, ty!

[@spectrumtrains]

Thanks for watching!

[@kenwilliams3560]

Didn't realise Oxford could be so busy, great video.

[@spectrumtrains]

Thanks, Ken, filmed over 4 hours.

[@beeble2003]

It's on the main route from Southampton to the Midlands and the north, which accounts for most of the traffic shown.

[@spectrumtrains]

@@beeble2003 Yes, a good location for intermodal traffic

[@JJthrashing]

67 looked like GBR livery with Colas logos sprayed over it maybe on loan ..? Great footage thanks for sharing 👍

[@spectrumtrains]

Could be, the Colas decals were first spotted late July this year. Thanks for watching.

Superb workings mate 👍👍

Thank you! Cheers!

[@TheAzumaFan801]

Looks like 67 027 had a colas rain paint to a GBRf colas rail style now

[@spectrumtrains]

Yes and it looks smart.

[@TLGvideos]

Great video. Subbed.

[@spectrumtrains]

Awesome, thank you!

[@nounoufriend1442]

[@jonhigginson4096]

Far better than full colas livery…

[@spectrumtrains]

Wholeheartedly agree 👍

[@MistaMatthews]

I’m confused. 67027 is going back to Colas?

[@spectrumtrains]

Yes, mate, pool code COTS, colas locomotives . Thanks for commenting

[@cd66061]

Weird seeing a GBRf loco with colas badge on it. On loan or sold off??

[@beeble2003]

Permanently back to GBRf, according to Wikipedia.

[@spectrumtrains]

Not 100%, but according to trainlogger it is a Colas loco including pool code

[@spectrumtrains]

Not sure, I did look at Wiki under class 37, it shows as a Colas.

[@beeble2003]

@@spectrumtrains Actually, I just looked at Wikipedia again and it contradicts itself: the big table of class 67s lists the operator as Colas but also says it's returned to GBRf. So probably better to go with your other source!
