West Highland Exile
37402 had just arrived at Reading with 3Q06, a 14:28 Derby RTC to Exeter Riverside test train, on 10 February 2025. At the other end 37425 was in position to lead on the next leg of the journey, to Triangle Sidings, all of half a mile away. Both locos are former Eastfield machines and seeing them brought back happy memories of trips to the West Highland Line in the late 1980s.
