37676 Passes Springs Branch - 13th May 2025
The class 37 was on a light engine move from Crewe to Carnforth to act as thunderbird rescue locomotive for a Freightliner container train which I believe ran the train as far as Crews later in the day.
A slow long shot which is nice and a look at the locomotive crossing onto the fasts.
