Does anybody happen to have details of when Freightliner's 66526–531 arrived/were unloaded at Newport Docks and on which ship they were conveyed across the Atlantic, please? I have managed to find these details for all the other members of the class, but there is little information available about the delivery these locos for some reason. The only snippet that I have found (via the Cardiff & Avonside Railway Society) is that they were undergoing commissioning on 19 August 2001. Thanks, Ian

They were delivered on MV Stellanova, which docked on 17/08/2001.
