Description
After last week's excitement of the usual HST hauled South West New Measurement Train being substituted for a pair of Class 37s on the Plain Line Pattern Recognition train https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXOKJ20w35I&t=30s this week continued to impress, with the South West seeing a second pair of Class 37s in as many weeks!

The absolutely cracking pair of 37402 'Oor Wullie' and 37425 'Concrete Bob/ Sir William McAlpine' are currently in the area, working the Ultrasonic Test Train out of Exeter Riverside Yard overnight, and having completed the Penzance section late last night and working into the early hours, today the train made a rare daylight move between Exeter Riverside Yard and Exeter Fuelling Point, with the added bonus of the two Class 37s having swapped ends to allow for some great shots of 'Oor Wullie' sat in the depot, albeit briefly, before the pair made some noise heading back to Riverside. They should of work tonights leg of the UTU up via Yeovil and Salisbury, but this was caped due to an issue. | 13.02.2025

Also included at the beginning of the video is a short clip of the unique test unit 950001 hurrying home to Derby with the 2Q08 Plymouth Park Sidings - Derby R.T.C on 11.02.2025
