Autumn flasks.
With an afternoon off in hand I noted that the Seaton-Sellafield flasks was running (with an outbound service from Carlisle to Seaton having traversed the Tyne Valley in the morning).
The weather was sunny so I headed out to Stocksfield to pick up the return working.
As is traditional with such matters the sun went in a few minutes before the train went through (and remained firmly behind cloud until after this and the light engine movement in the opposite direction had passed).
No matter - With 66's looking to have picked up the RHTT work on the Tyne Valley this year it's a chance to get some 37's on freight work. 37259 heads 37602 with the 6M60 Seaton to Sellafield on the 8th October 2015.
