DRS fleet sale extended

A sale of heritage fleet DRS rolling stock has extended its bidding period.

It will now run until Monday 7 February.

Meanwhile, another vehicle, a 37405 loco, has been added to those being sold by DRS, the rail division of NTS.

As reported, there are several Class 37, 57 and DBSO carriages available to buy. There are also two DVT vehicles offered.

The items will be available for sale through a competitive online bidding process, linked here.

Bidders will need to register on the website and use the reference CTM 14996 to enable them to download the tender documents. 

Chris Connelly, NTS Deputy CEO and Rail Director, said: “We’re really proud of our past but as we look to the future we need to ensure we’re as efficient and agile as possible.

“We’ll be utilising our much more efficient and environmentally friendly Class 88 and Class 68 locomotives as we drive forward, ensuring that rail freight is as green as it can be and continue to emit much less CO2 when compared to road.

“This is a really exciting time at DRS and I can’t wait to see what the future holds.”
