Yes I know what you mean. The plain front does look err, different. But on the other hand, it's good to see it still operating on the network over 50 years after its construction (just checked; build date 21/10/1963). Certainly getting plenty of diesel traction variety in this part of West Yorkshire so far this year. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold 4630 Posted July 25, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 25, 2019 (edited) West Coast Railway Company's 37706 and 37685 Loch Arkaig double-head the diesel portion of todays 'Scarborough Spa Express', approaching Heaton Lodge Junction. 1Z25, 07.09 Carnforth to Scarborough. Edited to add a couple of images of the return working 1Z27, 17.13 Scarborough to Carnforth, which owing to various heat related track and OHL issues on the ECML was running 45 minutes early at this point. Now with 37685 Loch Arkaig leading 37706, passing through Sowerby Bridge. Edited July 25, 2019 by 4630 To add further photos. 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.&R.S.M.D (17:19) The sun is wrong side and typically, was very bright for a couple of minutes while the train passed and then went back in again, so this is about the best shot.

Certainly changed. My mum lives in one of the houses on the cul-de-sac behind the first carriage. It's a nice walk up to Newton on the track bed. A shame there aren't more photos of this stretch between Rugby and Lutterworth. Regards Guy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
