Just to note is that 56007 is at Crewe IEMD while the rest are at Crewe DMD.
56037 carries EWS red and gold while 56077 carries Loadhaul black and orange with the rest carrying Fertis grey. And just 56007 and 56103 are so far guaranteed a new life.
I am not sure which are visible at DMD but I do know that if you go to the builders yard next to the EMD you can see 56007.
Hope this helps, Sam

By the way, when I typed that up nothing had been confirmed about which 56s Colas were getting. Luckily these locos are to get attention at Washwood Heath and then run on our rail network. Better than being scrapped
Thanks, Sam
