30 December 2000 was the last day of Class 37s on the North Wales Coast, and 37429 Eisteddfod Genedlaethol is suitably bedecked with headboards, as it passes Mold Junction with the 1D71 12:07 Birmingham New Street to Holyhead service. This had actually started from Wolverhampton, due to late running of the previous train. The sunshine and snow was a definite seasonal bonus.
