Due to the current EMT driver's dispute banning overtime, DRS locomotives and coaches were hired in to take the Sunday Crewe to Derby and return services. Here DRS Class 37 Nos. 37405 and 37425, recently renamed 'Concrete Bob / Sir Robert McAlpine', 'top and tail' around very crowded DRS coaches Nos. 17159, 6117, and 6046, on the 1K02 15:05 Crewe to Derby service passing Bramshall on 25th August 2013. This was witnessed by a large gallery observing the first locomotive hauled Crewe to Derby service in over two decades.
