#SulzerSunday The tail end of yesterday's #railwaytouringcompany 'York Yuletide Express' railtour. #westcoastrailways 47802 is about to be engulfed by the morning fog as the tour departs from Kettering. Not ideal conditions for photographing dark coloured engines! #WCR #MML #Class47 20/12/25

#SulzerSunday 3 x 27s seen in Leicestershire in one afternoon! Bringing back the old days when some of the class worked the #MML with allocations at Cricklewood & Leicester. D5370 & 27056 at the Great Central Rlwy diesel gala & 27059 awaiting restoration at Leicester LIP. @brcwco.bsky.social 6/9/25

#SulzerSunday Had a really enjoyable afternoon/evening at the Great Central Railway autumn diesel gala yesterday. One of the star performers was repainted 27056 which looked stunning. Seen here after arrival into Loughborough Central. #BRCW #GCR 6/9/25

Final three pics from yesterday morning's railtour. #UKRailtours 'The Kent Coaster' at Kettering with #westcoastrailways 47812 on the first leg of 1Z33 East Midlands Parkway to Faversham which she hauled as far as Acton from where the 33s took over. #SulzerSunday #MML #WCR 7/6/25

#SulzerSunday from early yesterday morning as West Coast Railways 47812 departs from Kettering working 1Z33 05.55 East Midlands Parkway to Faversham #UKRailtours 'The Kent Coaster' #MML #WCR 7/6/25

Might as well while I'm still on a Twin Peaks mindset. This one is from the one that got me to add this gala to my annual calendar in the first place, the 2023 Twin Peaks gala. And this loco which I have a love hate relationship with! 26007 is snapped at Wirksworth. #SulzerSunday

End of the Twin Peaks gala, and the biggest Sulzer finishes it off with a reasonably quiet beerex.

D1842 is seen at Wirksworth after terminating with the last train from Duffield.

An 80s #SulzerSunday from Leicester depot on 16/4/89. 25080 & 46023 stand in a forlorn state prior to being moved to Crewe where the peak ended her days. The rat was eventually scrapped at MC Metals, Glasgow. 46023 had been the spare parts donor for the nuclear flask test crash.

#SulzerSunday 47848 bears down on me with the 1Z30 Kings Cross to Lincoln railtour. Plenty of clag from the big 47 but not a lot of noise.

After a quick change of ends by the driver and a quick toot of the horn class 47 loco 47727 departs from Nuneaton on 27th September 2022 working 0B97 from Leicester L.I.P to Northampton E.M.U.D.

Lovely bit of thrash from the Sulzer 12LDA28-C power unit
