DRS Class 37/6s No's. 37608 and 37601 'Class 37 Fifty' are seen storming past Branston Junction, Burton-on-Trent on 2nd May 2012, at the head of working 1Z75, 0551 Edinburgh Waverley to Southampton Eastern Docks 'Cruise Saver' private charter. Normally motive power for these workings are DRS Class 47s but following the problems that were encountered during the previous working on 26th April, the traction was entrusted to the brace of DRS Class 37/6s on this day (2 May) instead. However, a DRS Class 47/8, No. 47810, was also trailing at the rear of this train.
