37667 Meldon Quarry Centenary passes Yarnton (near Oxford) on 2 June 2004 with the 18:28 Didcot to Bescot departmental working, following right behind 37174 on the 6M65 18:16 Didcot to Carlisle Enterprise service. Both these trains were booked for Class 66 haulage but would often turn up whatever Didcot wanted to be rid of! To get both Class 37 hauled as late as 2004 was definitely unusual and all the more impressive to get both in sunshine! |
