A Week of Twyford Diesels - 37s, 47s and 57s galore!

It was a very interesting week for diesel rail traction in Twyford, with multiple railtours and unusual rail activity taking place. We weren't able to see all of it, but here is a selection of what we were able to see. Simon says "my favourite of the diesels was the class 37."
Locos featured in this video
Class 47 D1924 - Crewe Diesel Depot on a rail tour (and again coming back)
57603 - Tintagel Castle
57602 - Restormel Castle (on either end of the Night Riviera)
47828 in lovely Intercity livery
Class 37 D6817 with support coach on a positioning move
57313 - Scarborough Castle
57601 - Windsor Castle (on either end of the Northern Belle running to Ascot)
Plus a selection class 66s on freight workings.
What an exciting week for diesel enthusiasts!

Great video Simon, nice to see the diesels at work on the mainline.
We're the class 47s and class 37 diesels assigned to an excursion or are they transferring stock to different heritage groups?
How are things getting on?
I'm going on holiday to the Gold Coast in a couple of days. Its a great holiday destination in Queensland. I'm really excited.
Keep your steam up Simon.
Cheers mate
