37s and 56s ... The North East Comes Alive

[wensley]

A few bits of interest in the North East today, it was definitely worth turning out!

Early start for 37s on the cruise train from Edinburgh to Southampton.

Impressive acoustics also captured

Then over to Eaglescliffe to see 56311 performing on 6Z34 from Derby

The loco was signal checked at my location and it was good to hear a 'Grid' turbo at full scream

Finally 0Z34 was the 56 returning to Darlington for stabling

The videos were a spur-of-the-moment, I left the video camera to it so they aren't anything special. The 'grid' makes the spine tingle though

Cheers Like I say, videos aren't my thing, but it was worth making the exception on this occasion!!
