Sun Spot

DRS 37 716 + 37 218 top'n'tail respectively 3S29 Hellifield - York Thrall Europa Rail Head Treatment Train passing Niffany west of Skipton. When the train appeared round the corner there seemed to be no chance of getting the shot in the sun but amazingly sunshine preceded the train down the line, it was as if the train was pushing the shadows away!

37 716 was delivered from English Electric to Gateshead depot in February 1963, fingers crossed it makes it to February 2023!

In January 2024 DRS withdrew all their remaining Class 37's from service, hopefully some will be bought for further use.
