Enjoying my Class 37

This advert strikes deep into the core of British irony. Once I saw this I figured there had to be a OO Class 37 in police livery, and with the help of some here, or there, I cannot recall which, I landed a specimen and enjoy it every time I look at it. My new video, "Ye New Olde Henley" features it as the Southern Railway does a brisk business in parcels and the Loch Ness Monster Tours (the equivalent of a whale watch tour, but on land) trundles about looking for the beastie.

The layout is in a clutter as new track is being laid in and rearrangement of structures and such is in progress. Always a process.

Is nice Chops. I have never had one of those liveried locos. They were painted for a British Rail advert back around the mid '80's? I even remember the advert! The police class 37 was pulling over a HST for speeding.

There was a Class 47 painted up as well, which was also modelled.
