The fourth Class 37 on display - perhaps it is more appropriate to write type 3 - was D6990 "Castell Caerffili" (37411) which contrary to its heritage livery is still on the books of DB Schenker.

Get to the Duffs and I start getting mildly interested. This, once Stratford based, Class 47 is no stranger to me. In 1980 I moved away from my beloved Southern Region and prior to the line between Bishops Stortford and Cambridge/Kings Lynn being electrified this was one of the locos I would see storming through my local station with a rake of early Mk2s in tow.
