An excuse to buy a Class 37: next year is 40th anniversary of one of greatest rail TV ads of all time (“Train jam”) from 1984. Could ONE class 37 owner be up for a repaint with blue light? With @125Group that’d be a popular heritage railway Diesel Gala event pairing in 2024…🤔
We're pleased to offer five Class 37 locomotives for sale, and Class 37 part lots are also available. Locos are - 37069, 37402, 37423, 37218, 37401 Full details are available through the tender management website - https://t.co/zEHkbz15bW

Lovely to visit the lovely Ballater Station this afternoon and see part of the old Royal Train, Royal Waiting room - in addition the station buildings now house the local @Aberdeenshire Library, Information Centre, a shop and a busy Tea Room.
