Rare daylight outing for Eurotunnel locomotives

21903 passes Hothfield top-and-tailing with 21902, having taken the PLPR set for a trip up and down HS1. ED CHAPMAN

Eurotunnel has ten Class 21/9 Krupp MaK Bo-Bo locomotives, numbered 0001-0010 but registered on TOPS as 21901-910 as they are passed to run on High Speed 1. They are used to rescue any stricken train, but also find occasional use on the Plain Line Pattern Recognition trains operated for Network Rail.
