She has now had her maintenance complete and has also had a repaint from a red livery to a blue livery. She was dragged from Longport (Stoke On Trent) to Hull to be taken back to Belgium to resume hauling freight services. 

The 66 arrived in the UK in November 2018 and left in February 2019 just like sister loco 66999 which came over in August 2018 for maintenance and left in November 2018.
