Thanks for the heads-up.

Anyone know if this will be 37/4s or something a bit more exotic?

Went on a Retro Tour last year, two very nice 37s to South Wales. Only one loco was doing anything useful for most of the trip,plenty of noise but pedestrian progress. Enjoyed the day out though:D
PS I think there was a 57 on the back

The Paignton & Dartmouth Railway (whatever it's called these days) now has a 37 of its own, so this could be a real tractorfest.
