Tractors in East Anglia ?
 
Apparently there was an item on the morning news today (about 6:30) about using heritage diesels on regular services in East Anglia soon.

Seems the pictures showed a class 37 (Tractor).

Anyone know the details ?:confused:

Although out of the region as above, last week I did a trip from Carlisle to Barrow with DRS Mk II coaching stock and a Class 37 at either end - most enjoyable.

The East Anglia DRS Services that initially were 37 hauled are now moving over th 47/57 haulage according to the haulage buffs that I know

I spent the afternoon at Brundall station, and can confirm the DRS class 37s are still in action.

They were 37405 + 37425.

I'll download a photo and video when I get a moment.:)

PS Photo and videos done now.
