37109 Attercliffe 1X01 Roundwood - Nottingham 21-03-97
Quite a poor scan, but uploaded purely for the rarity factor. 37109 heads 1X01 Royal Train to Nottingham from its overnight stay in South Yorkshire on 21st March 1997. The train usually ran with the dedicated Royal Duffs, but on this occasion was single headed. I was on nights in Sheffield box when the assisting engine for the top n tail section went by, was a little surprised to see the tractor! 37109 only worked as far as Woodburn Jn, where it was uncoupled and ran light back to Toton. Its seen here passing Don Valley stadium in Attercliffe. I wonder if HRH required the tractor for haulage.....?
