Driver of 37146 was enthusiastic on the throttle. Particularly interesting 37903 with short wheelbase ballast hoppers with Shark brakevan.

Fresh out of the oven, the Steel behind 37283. Have seen them steaming as they passed through Shrewsbury. The Scottish 37/4 were a long way from home lol. Shame it's all gone now,, nothing but boring 66s 🙄
