Interesting that the krupps dont have the "chimney" extensions like the originals. The exhaust used to do a 90 and run along the long bonnet and over the" buffer" beam. They used to run through the tunnel with a "scrubber" wagon coupled between a pair of locos . The engine exhaust used to run through a water bath and activated charcoal in the wagon , so as not to pollute the tunnel. They used to pull the night time works trains.
Legendary, rare, and lucky! 🤩 Shame I couldn't see them ☹️ Atleast I know where they're secretly stored now at Singwell with the HS1 MPV's 😏 Nice to see an Ex-Eurostar 73 still in Preservation! 😄
@@siccodierdorp6947 Actually the class 500/600NS are based on the BR class 11, an earlier version of the 3 axle EE shunter, the visual difference is in the cab roof. The 600 or class 11 have roofs with a continuous curve, the roof on an 08 has a distinct kink in the radius.

EKR appears to have changed quite alot since I was a volunteer there 10+ years ago.

There stored in the Eurotunnel Diesel shed. The path only went up to the Boundary.
@@andrewroberts1376 Is that inside the Channel Tunnel truck & car loading area? 🤔
@@SSccaanniiaa it's the otherside of the tunnel
@@andrewroberts1376 Oh 😑
So totally useless to get to 🤣
@@SSccaanniiaayou can just about spot it all through a 20ft fence lol
Great catch very rare
Those are pretty common around Germany especially freight yards
What’s all that gubbins on the noses of the 73, please?
Specialist coupling for Eurostars.
@@22pcirish What do the circles even do? I've seen them on a 37 and the 92's but never known what they did.
@@progenlol They were meant to represent a slice of the tunnel receding into the distance.
