DB Cargo UK 60100 'Midland Railway - Butterley' (05.09.2019)

While a big DB logo now effectively replaces the DB Schenker logo on this class 60, the what I would class as the DB Schenker red livery remains, as here illustrates. 60100 is seen at Nottingham Station before and after a driver swap with the Lindsey Oil Refinery-Kingsbury Oil Sidings loaded oil tanks.

This may be an all but full consist here but I can't identify the first tank although the consist can be seen below and we all know what colour tanks dominate in this one, so all that and everything else below:
870??? (EWS grey)
870283 (EWS grey)
870320 (EWS grey)
870282 (EWS grey)
870293 (EWS grey)
870215 (EWS grey)
870295 (EWS grey)
870223 (EWS grey)
88044 (VTG blue, no ladders)
870221 (EWS grey)
870204 (EWS grey)
870201 (EWS grey)
871005 (VTG green, former Freightliner)
870344 (EWS grey)
870226 (EWS grey)
870229 (EWS grey)
870339 (EWS grey)
88028 (VTG blue)
870285 (EWS grey)
870235 (EWS grey)
870243 (EWS grey)
870273 (EWS grey)
85961 (VTG brown)
870289 (EWS grey, debranded)
870299 (EWS grey)
85948 (VTG brown, no ladders)
85957 (VTG brown)
870305 (EWS grey)
870261 (EWS grey)

And so we come to a conclusion, so here are the numbers of the tanks in total:
EWS grey- 23
VTG brown- 3
VTG blue- 2
VTG green- 1

Looks like the EWS grey tanks are the most popular then and end up top
In second come the VTG brown tanks
In third come the VTG blue tanks
And in last place, the VTG green tanks

Well then, I guess that's that! 29 tanks in total on this one as well. One less than perhaps normal for this service but there you go!
