Waiting departure at Wick - a photo on Flickriver

            Wick station sees 37025 waiting with the 1200 to Inverness on 25th February 1984.
I presume the station has been tidied up a bit in the 34 years since the shot was taken.

The loco was withdrawn in December 1999 and then reinstated in August 2000 after being bought by The Scottish Thirty-Seven Group. It currently roams the network as one of the Colas fleet.
A pair of (now) heritage buses wait in the background - not sure what type they are.

An improved re-scanned negative.
