Double Headed Class 37’s on the Dee Marsh Steel

A double-headed Class 37 diesel locomotive pair, 37410 and 37710, are shown leading a freight train on the Dee Marsh steel route. The footage captures the train departing from Shelwick Junction near Hereford, heading north towards Wales. At the time, such operations were becoming less common due to increased use of DB Cargo (formerly EWS) Class 66 locomotives. The headcode listed in the video was initially noted as 6M86 but was later corrected to 6M84 in comments.
