SNCB/NMBS HLR 7818 + 7795

Here a lay-up of the SNCB/NMBS HLR7818 and 7795 heavy shunters , which will become the standard
diesel locomotive in the freight division of the SNCB/NMBS (B-Cargo) when all other (older) locomotives
(HLD62/63 ; HLR 74/80/82 ...) are scrapped.Both the 7818 and 7795 are allocated to the depot of
Antwerpen-Noord.

I made a picture of this lay-up in Boom station.You can see them very much here , because they shunt
on the Boom yard (MSP-Boom) , and they serve some factories (Prayon Rupel , Mouterij Albert) with their respective goods (chemicals and hop) and are rail-connected.
