That is pretty hideous to be honest. Any reason why Large Logo could not have been retained?

I think it's alright. The red and black parts are good but I think the grey is too light. Maybe if they changed it to a darker grey, it would look better.

 

I don't know why they repainted it from BR blue but there's probably a reason for it out there somewhere.

Brand awareness I’d imagine.

Class 97's rather than 37's, strictly speaking... the Cambrian Coast Express runs into Criccieth with the first excursion of the year.  Being apparently the only photographer in town to lack a pole to stick the camera on too...

After a nice afternoon on the beach, the weather had turned somewhat when myself and Elder Child went out to see the return at Minfford.

Impressive, from this eye level from the public footpath.  Lovely smell wafting down on us from the buffet carriage too :)

Seeing this picture it struck me that I don't think I've ever seen a picture of a 37 pulling air con coaches before. Was it a common occurrence?

I would say not at the time? I’d be guessing that that’s a bit of a kick out at the time, however 37/4’s on rakes of air con’s though were certainly common place up until not that long ago… 

Some of us no longer have reasons to get over to Norwich as often as we used to…
