These Class 66 locomotives hauled biomass for electricity generation and infrastructure materials for Network Rail. On 22nd April 2015, 66754 was named ‘Northampton Saints’ after the rugby club in a special naming ceremony. At the time, it was to celebrate their most successful season in over 60 years, which included 9 cup finals in 7 years, the 2014 Aviva Premiership and European Challenge Cup titles. The naming ceremony took place at the Wellingborough Railhead in Northampton, near Franklin’s Gardens which is Northampton Saints’ ground.
