Description
*Thursday 15th July 1999* - Class 37 locomotive 37519 hauling Wales & West’s 2V74 1103 Weymouth to Bristol Temple Meads service. I think a fairly rare working for a class 37/5, normally a class 37/4 worked this passenger service as class 37/5 normally pull freight, plus I believe they cant provide any heating - not that it was needed being summer!

This video is just the section from Frome to Bristol Temple Meads. There are signal checks before Clink Road junction to wait for a HST to overtake via the Frome station bypass. And at Bathampton junction, another wait for a HST from Paddington to run ahead of us.
