On a recent thread discussing DB Cargo 66s, I posted a complete list of the liveries carried currently by 66001-66250. I figured I'd expand this list further to cover all the other 59s and 66s, and, well, got carried away a bit and decided to include various other aspects of the two classes, covering all locomotives that have been based in the UK. I have split this up into several sections, these being:
• Operators
• Naming
• Plaques
• Renumberings
• Liveries
• Imports & Exports
• Scrapped Locomotives
And hopefully you'll somehow find my endless ramblings useful
Operators
This section details the current operator of each Class 59 and 66. To keep the list simple and avoid any confusion over locomotives carrying the same number, the most recent/current UK number is used in preference to the numbers carried by some of these locomotives abroad.

Naming
This list covers all of the names, past and present, carried by a Class 59 or 66. The name here will be paired with the number the locomotive carried at the time, for instance both 66058 and 66783 are listed here with two different names, but both are the same locomotive. In cases where a locomotive has carried one (or more) names whilst carrying the same number, the first name will be listed first. The same number will appear again directly below with the next name, and same and same again.
*Denotes a locomotive carrying a different name on each side. These names will be shown as such: Name 1 / Name 2.

Plaques
Some locomotives, around their nameplates, carry plaques. These are generally an explanation of the name, or sometimes just a logo, or commemorative, and each of these plaques is written out in full below. Numbering system used is the same as the 'Naming' section above, just the number used when the plaque was attached to the locomotive, and the plaque's location is also shown.

Renumberings
This section covers all of the renumberings of Class 59s and 66s, including those both exported and imported to and from the UK, but not including those that have never been based in the UK. The locomotives listed here have their first number on the left, followed by the next number they carried, and so on so forth. Furthermore, the number 66734 was used twice in the UK, the first locomotive was scrapped in 2012, and a 'new' 66734 was created several years later. I have differentiated these two, with the first locomotive having (I) after the number, and the second having (II).
*Denotes a number not used in the UK, but one used abroad.

Liveries
This list details each livery carried by a Class 66, again including ones that have been exported or imported, but not including those never based in the UK. For simplicity, the numbering here uses the last/most recent UK number, so for instance 66008 is not shown, but is actually 66780 instead, whilst 66582 is shown, though it is presently carrying the number 66009 abroad.

Imports & Exports
Over the years, hundreds of Class 66s have been based in the UK. Many of these arrived when new and stayed, though some have since been exported to Europe, whilst others have been imported to the UK and modified to work here. This list shows the locomotives which have been imported and exported, and like the livery section, uses the most recent/current UK number for simplicity.
Imports: 66306-66316, 66734 (II), 66747-66751, & 66790-66799
Exports: 66014, 66022, 66029, 66033, 66036, 66038, 66042, 66045, 66049, 66052, 66062, 66064, 66071-66072, 66123, 66146, 66153, 66157, 66159, 66163, 66166, 66173, 66178, 66180, 66189, 66191, 66193, 66195-66196, 66201-66204, 66208-66220, 66222-66223, 66225-66229, 66231-66237, 66239-66243, 66245-66249, 66411-66412, 66417, 66526-66527, 66529-66530, 66535, 66582-66584, 66586, 66595, 66599, 66608-66609, 66611-66612, 66624-66625, & 66954-66956
Some locomotives arrived new in the UK, before being exported to Europe, and then later returned. These locomotives are: 66010, 66026, 66028, 66032, 66073, 66179, 66190, 66205, 66224, & 66244
Scrapped Locomotives
Hundreds of Class 66s continue to operate across the UK. However, some have also been scrapped, so far just due to accident damage.

Naming
This list covers all of the names, past and present, carried by a Class 59 or 66. The name here will be paired with the number the locomotive carried at the time, for instance both 66058 and 66783 are listed here with two different names, but both are the same locomotive. In cases where a locomotive has carried one (or more) names whilst carrying the same number, the first name will be listed first. The same number will appear again directly below with the next name, and same and same again.
*Denotes a locomotive carrying a different name on each side. These names will be shown as such: Name 1 / Name 2.

Plaques
Some locomotives, around their nameplates, carry plaques. These are generally an explanation of the name, or sometimes just a logo, or commemorative, and each of these plaques is written out in full below. Numbering system used is the same as the 'Naming' section above, just the number used when the plaque was attached to the locomotive, and the plaque's location is also shown.

They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

We will remember them.

Renumberings
This section covers all of the renumberings of Class 59s and 66s, including those both exported and imported to and from the UK, but not including those that have never been based in the UK. The locomotives listed here have their first number on the left, followed by the next number they carried, and so on so forth. Furthermore, the number 66734 was used twice in the UK, the first locomotive was scrapped in 2012, and a 'new' 66734 was created several years later. I have differentiated these two, with the first locomotive having (I) after the number, and the second having (II).
*Denotes a number not used in the UK, but one used abroad.

Liveries
This list details each livery carried by a Class 66, again including ones that have been exported or imported, but not including those never based in the UK. For simplicity, the numbering here uses the last/most recent UK number, so for instance 66008 is not shown, but is actually 66780 instead, whilst 66582 is shown, though it is presently carrying the number 66009 abroad.

Imports & Exports
Over the years, hundreds of Class 66s have been based in the UK. Many of these arrived when new and stayed, though some have since been exported to Europe, whilst others have been imported to the UK and modified to work here. This list shows the locomotives which have been imported and exported, and like the livery section, uses the most recent/current UK number for simplicity.
Imports: 66306-66316, 66734 (II), 66747-66751, & 66790-66799
Exports: 66014, 66022, 66029, 66033, 66036, 66038, 66042, 66045, 66049, 66052, 66062, 66064, 66071-66072, 66123, 66146, 66153, 66157, 66159, 66163, 66166, 66173, 66178, 66180, 66189, 66191, 66193, 66195-66196, 66201-66204, 66208-66220, 66222-66223, 66225-66229, 66231-66237, 66239-66243, 66245-66249, 66411-66412, 66417, 66526-66527, 66529-66530, 66535, 66582-66584, 66586, 66595, 66599, 66608-66609, 66611-66612, 66624-66625, & 66954-66956
Some locomotives arrived new in the UK, before being exported to Europe, and then later returned. These locomotives are: 66010, 66026, 66028, 66032, 66073, 66179, 66190, 66205, 66224, & 66244
Scrapped Locomotives
Hundreds of Class 66s continue to operate across the UK. However, some have also been scrapped, so far just due to accident damage.
