Europhoenix is a name that has become well known on the UK rail network in recent years, with its fleet of Class 37s often seen at the head of a variety of trains, with the distinctive red Phoenix logo adorning the sides of grey liveried locomotives. However, the company started out refurbishing, reactivating and exporting redundant Class 87s to Bulgaria, long before moving into the UK spot hire market. Founded by Glenn Edwards, the company was originally established as Electric Traction Services in 2007, before rebranding as Europhoenix a couple of years later.
