Happy Birthday 003

Christmas may be over, but the celebrations haven't stopped within the C37LG!

On 28th December 1960, D6703 entered traffic at Stratford depot. The subsequent years saw the loco travel the network, calling depots such as Thornaby, Gateshead and Tinsley 'home'.

65 years later, 'home' is the Mid Norfolk Railway where the loco is undergoing extensive bodywork restoration to return it to that "as built" condition.

If you'd like to give the loco a little birthday gift, to help return it to traffic, please consider donating via the link below:
