Twelve named locomotives were built and finished in the company's green/yellow livery.

They were painted in the company's distinctive livery of red, white and silver and as their primary function was to act as emergency rescue locomotives, they were named after the characters in the 1960s TV series Thunderbirds. The order was increased to a total of 16 and all the locomotives were modified with automatic Delner coupling devices for use with'Voyager' and'Pendolino' units.
