Most of the locomotives within the Class 59 series were withdrawn from 
services during 1988. However, about 10 members of the class have since 
been brought back into service as a result of the work involved with 
building the High Speed line between Northern France and Belgium. The
accompanying picture shows locomotive 5950 at the HST-base at Coucou 
along with 5946 which still carries the older green livery.
