Four and a bit at the moment, 301, 305, 310 & 312 in service with 303 being prepared by DRS to join them, all are on hire as ROG own virtually no locos themselves, just a couple of 47s I believe

cheers! Business must be going well if they need more locos

I asked because 57310 is not DRS branded

They seem to be taking everything on offer at the moment. 6 37's, 4 (+1) 57's, at least 2 20's and the 6 47's owned by the group.
