So. After our class 37/4s were withdrawn from mainline passenger use at the end of the contract with Northern Rail the feeling was that life was going to be a bit boring with an endless procession of Class 156 DMUs dominating. However, it hasn't turned out quite like that.
37 419 and 37 402 on the Three Peaks Challenge charter train
We've repainted 419 'Carl Haviland' in the classic Intercity executive livery much to the delight of the railfans
One of our Class 68s is at the rear of a driver training working with the CAF built driving car at the front
Due to a blockade further down the West Coast route, the Saturday Sellafield-Crewe flask working was 'Top and tailed' by Class 68s
One of the jobs the 37/4s picked up was hauling the Network rail 'PLPR Infrastructure test train'. A sort of 'Dr Yellow' for secondary routes
