Noted in the latest version P&T magazine 'Aktuell' that BB have placed an order for four new 08-4x4/4S' that are fitted with electric tamping banks.

No timescales mentioned.

Thursday 30th Jan this week there is a schedule (7Z80) in for a Dollands Moor to Ashford Down Sidings. Could this be this machine arriving ?

There is also a movement in the opposite direction (6Z81) from Ashford to DM. Is there another machine due for export ?
