ROG Class 37s with ex-SWR Class 456 Storage Moves Passing Through Reading & Tilehurst - Jan/Feb 2022

Описание: Video: A compilation of two storage moves of former South Western Railway (SWR) Class 456 units hauled by ROG Class 37s, here they are seen passing through Reading and Tilehurst stations headed for Long Marston. They will presumably be kept in cold storage for a long time and then be scrapped in due course. Unfortunately I've not been lucky with catching most of the other moves (some of which included early retired 455s and some separate 458 moves).
The 456s were retired early due to staff shortages reducing the SWR services, and their lease not being extended, despite the new Class 701s not being ready to enter service.

The Workings:
37800 with 456015, 456020 & 456008 | 31/01/2022 working 519D 1131 Wimbledon Park C.S.D. to Long Marston (which was running approximately 83 minutes late).
37884 with 456022, 456012, 456019 | 02/02/2022 working 522E 1131 Wimbledon Park C.S.D. to Long Marston.
