This Pic is part of a collection from the 1960's & 1970's. They are all prints of various sizes with some colour and some black & white with almost half having written details on the rear.
The photographs were purchased as a set some time ago and after spending some time cleaning the images up I now feel it is time to show them and not let the collection just hide away.

Thornaby-based Class 37 37008 (originally D6708) has just come off the Huddersfield line with this tanker train heading east. The line the engine is on became little used around this time - by August it was rusting away and was lifted around the end of the year. This was the last shot I have of an engine on this track.

The signal device on the left is called a 'banner repeater' and these are positioned and illuminated when the driver cannot see a forthcoming signal. In this case it displays either 'on' or 'off' (proceed or danger) which refers to the aspect of the down signal L717 at the other end of platform 1 on the left out of sight (the up line) during bi-directional workings.
