Kinkempois is possibly best known for its allocation of Class 55's. They are used for both freight and passenger workings. Recent electrification of the line to Luxembourg has however reduced the passenger workings considerably. This shot shows .5527 at the head of a line of 55's - the dot before the number indicating it does not have a working train heating supply (either not fitted or has been isolated). |
