37185 (ex-D6885) BR Blue w/Wizzy the Lizard logo

While 37207 William Cookworthy is the most famous of the Cornish-themed Class 37s with its local hero name and full set of nose regalia and ‘Wizzy the lizard’ arrow logos, there were three other Laira-based members of the fleet that also gained painted embellishments courtesy of St Blazey guard and celebrated artist Vic Millington. Of the other trio, 37247 gained Cornish Railways lettering, and 37181 and 37185 were the lucky recipients of the red BR arrow and its intertwined lizard wearing the period British Rail peaked cap.

                  With a gorgeous range of china clay ‘hoods’ having just joined the Accurascale range we knew we wanted the perfect partner in our run 4 of the Class 37 and 37185 fit the bill perfectly. As a Robert Stephenson & Hawthorns-built centre headcode machine it would fill another useful gap in our range. For added attractiveness it carried miniature snowploughs and retained its bufferbeam cowling right up to the middle of 1986, and once transformed it left the Western Region after 23 years for a new life up north. Built in December 1963 and initially allocated to 87E Swansea Landore it was only based at one other depot, 86A Cardiff Canton, before joining Plymouth Laira in April 1983.

                  It received the ‘Wizzy’ arrows ahead of a railtour into the region exactly a year later and retained them for around 14 months, only losing them after transferring to Bristol Bath Road. While its next stop was Thornaby, it is also fondly remembered as one of Tinsley’s ‘banger blue’ unofficial namers, Phil Hodgkiss and colleagues giving it the painted dedication Buccaneer with TI rose emblems in November 1989. In January 1991 it was outshopped in Railfreight Distribution colours. After moving to Toton via Bescot and freshly repainted in ‘Dutch’ livery, it finally gained a cast name, Lea & Perrins at Worcester, in May 1993. It was stored in September 1999 and disposed of at CF Booth, Rotherham, in January 2006.

Good start to a series
Format: Kindle
I delayed reading the series for reasons I don’t remember. But my TBR list is huge so I thought I’d take a shot of this and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t think the blurb about it was anything special. But it was a very good book. It took some interesting twists and turns. I am so glad the second book is already out. Because I would not have waited patiently. Very slow burn but good storyline. 🔥🔥/5

A good read
Format: Kindle
Multiple points of view. 3 Alpha men and an Omega male. She is a Beta in training for a new program placing betas in Alpha/Omega packs. Mila is only doing the program for the money to take care of her dad. She wasn't expecting to fall for a pack but when she sees this packs Omega she is done for. There is just something about him. His Alphas are good looking as well. Too bad she is hiding a secret and their government is acting shady. I liked it and can't wait to see where their story goes.

Slightly repetitive but I did love some things
Format: Kindle
I love this type of story. And omegaverse is one of my all time favorite genres. But there are a few things that pulled me out of my enjoyment while I was reading. It was repetitive at times as well as struggled with telling not showing. So we didn’t always feel like we were experiencing things with the main character. There were also some plot holes but they may still be answered in part 2. Now this isn’t to be said I didn’t enjoy parts of the story. I loved the almost instant love between Mila and Oliver. And how he started changing around her.

delightful read
Format: Kindle
What a delightful read. The characters are awesome, the plot was so good, I loved it. I was intrigued and it kept me wanting more. Told in multiple pov, the book sucks you in and doesn’t let go. I cannot wait to read the next book.

not bad
Format: Kindle
I loved the plot of this book. The characters just didn’t have a lot of depth. The connections and “love” just weren’t communicated very well in the writing. The author didn’t write the sweet psycho trope very well at all either. Lachlan was just a mess of a character.
