Having brought some empty stock into Lougborough's GCR station, 37714 'Cardiff Canton' headed off to the shed and has now emerged and is running round to join the other end of the said stock. It would then tuck in behind 55009 'Alycydon' as far as Quorn and Woodhouse station where the Deeltic would detach leaving the 37 to lead the ECS into a siding to the south of the station. 37714 was one of the 'heavyweight' locomotives converted in October 1988. It then came under the custodianship of EWS and headed off to Spain before being repatriated in 2013. It is now owned by the Heavy Tractor Group and resides full-time on the GCR.
