It's a teddy bear! The connecting rods are missing but I'm going to 3D print my own in the not too distant future. This is a MOC I've wanted to have for a while, and I'm glad that I finally designed it. I'll build it soon.

I had positioned myself for this photograph, expecting it to be a class 40, which was the regular motive power for this service (the Skegness-Manchester Piccadilly). The 37 was a bit of a disappointment, but many years later it was still a good sighting.
The Class of 2014 climbed the risers on the Plain on Thursday, April 10, 2014 for their class photo. Always a fun event to capture. The Class photo will be available from PanFoto in the very near future.

BR/Beyer Peacock Class 25/2 1,250 hp Bo-Bo No.D7523 "John F Kennedy" (later 25 173) in BR two-tone livery at Williton, WSR, 3/10.
General Electric Powerhaul Freightliner 'Fugly Betty' Class 70 locomotive 70007 heads the daily 10:28 Freightliner 4M88 Felixstowe South- Crewe Basford Hall intermodal southbound through Chelmsford on the Great Eastern Main Line in Essex (UK).
The caged signal device on the left is called a 'banner repeater' and these are positioned when the driver cannot see a forthcoming colour aspect signal. In this case it's for the down signal L717 at the other end of this platform (the up line) during bi-directional workings. The banner aspect is 'on' (the following signal is on stop/danger). When a banner repeater is 'off' (the following signal is on green/proceed) the display bar will be at 45 degrees.
