    My pictures at Stratford on Sunday, showing the train from Derby arriving, on platform, Clun Castle running round after the return trip to Birmingham Snow Hill, and leaving the station on the return as it crosses the Stratford Canal just outside the station. A jogger ran in front of me moments before I took the picture…

    We travelled on the Snow Hill trip. Nice to have 37240 as the supporting diesel, much preferred to a 47 by me, anyway. Hopefully inBR 2 tone green sometime? So these were during the run round at Snow Hill station. Clun ran backwards coupled in front of the 37 on the return. The very affable and helpful staff were able to answer all my gricerish questions about the day’s IMG_7453.jpeg IMG_7454.jpeg IMG_7455.jpeg operations. A most enjoyable day, many thanks to Vintage Trains and all involved.

    Er no... On reflection I think not. Plain green as represented by D6700 would be more appropriate.
