Europhoenix Rail Ltd has unveiled a new look for Class 37 No. 37423.
37423 has recently been in the workshop, undergoing some TLC, and has now been unveiled in its new Europhoenix livery.
The locomotive is in the general rail services pool of locomotives and will be used on stock movements and thunderbird duties.
37423 was previously in use with Direct Rail Services before moving over to Europhoenix.
What are your thoughts on the new livery? Let us know in the comments below.

Maybe I’m too literal minded but I prefer the old version with a rampant phoenix. This just appears to be a series of blocks with no inherent meaning so that, as soon as I turn away, I can’t remember what it looks like.
I think its rather too “fussy” with lots of different shapes and odd patches of different colours. There are half-moons, full circles and triangles in two shades of blue and white, with a rather dismal grey as the base colour. Even the EPR lettering is in two colours. Too much!
Diesels look a lot better with just one or two colours with straight lines, or straight lining out, bordering each colour
