You are spot on it does indeed. Checked my photos and a slightly different angle clearly shows it. These 2 machines ,950 & 1, are dedicated to the Borders Rail Electrification Work. They are working between Newcraighall and Tweedbank on the Old Waverley Route, Edinburgh - Carlisle. If you don't get them at Blantyre could be a long search to spot them. Happy hunting

Looks like the other one has a similar name too - "THOR"?

This machine was advertised for sale at Ribble in October 2025 and was noted inside the shed at Peak Rail, Rowsley in late March 2026. Arrival date unknown. No identity found on the outside but the number 4199 was seen in the cab.
