Entering service at Cardiff Canton in 1991, 60039 was originally named ‘Glastonbury Tor’ as part of the hills and peaks theme of the initial Class 60 naming convention. It was later one of the locomotives selected for the ‘Super 60’ upgrade programme announced by DBS/DB Cargo in November 2010 that was designed to extend their working life by a further 15 years. No.60039 was named ‘Dove Holes’ in April 2015 and was used on limestone traffic out of Derbyshire. It is still owned by DB Cargo and is one of 52 members of the class put into storage by the company.
