The penultimate use of DRS Class 37s on a Pathfinder Railtour was on March 12 when No. 37218 and No. 37425 Sir Robert McAlpine / Concrete Bob hauled the ‘Pennine Wayfarer’ from Bristol to Bolton via the Hope Valley, Calder Valley and Diggle routes. The train is seen at Milford, Derbyshire, having just emerged from the 855 yard tunnel heading towards Belper.
