37 039 March

Daytrippers at March witness the arrival of the 08.40 Cambridge - Skegness on Sunday 3rd August 1980.

37039 was a March based loco which moved to Scotland in February 1981. It had recently undergone overhaul at Crewe Works and had emerged retaining its bufferbeam skirts and round buffers as well as black headcode boxes. Doncaster Works were turning out 37s in revised condition from late 1979 onwards.

A good time at the seaside was had that day with a party from Fenland 18+ Group I seem to recall.
