37508 & 37418 'An Comunn Gaidhealach' on the 0Z39 Kidderminster SVR to Derby R.T.C. @ Cradley Heath
For an assortment of reasons that I won't bore you with, I've not seen a 'proper' train (172 units don't count as 'proper' trains) since early November last year....
I managed to get to the SVR's Winter Diesel Gala last Monday, but haven't managed to sort those out as yet, so in the mean time, we have 37508 & 37418 'An Comunn Gaidhealach' returning back to Derby from their appearance at the SVR....
We had a small amount of snow overnight here in the Black Country, which then promptly froze, making things interesting.....so some 172 units in the snow for a change..
I'll get round to sorting the Winter Diesel Gala videos out at some point (allowing for the fact it's the winter Steam Gala this weekend...)
