10th Oct 1992

In January 1992 Railfreight Distribution staged an exhibition at the NEC Birmingham called "Freight Connection", aimed at promoting freight services to to mainland Europe, and especially to France, Belgium and Germany. As part of this initiative three Class 90s were re-liveried into the respective liveries of the railway companies in those countries. Class 90 no. 90128 "Vrachtverbinding" was one of them, wearing the Belgian state railway company colours. The locomotive is seen here stabled at the back of the station with fellow Class 90 no. 90129 "Frachtverbindungen", which is itself hidden by the screens.
