After arriving at Llandudno Junction from Preston, the Class 37 diesel had to run round individually to the Class 8F steam locomotive before heading to Blaenau Ffestiniog so that the Class 8F 48151 was leading . The diesel locomotive ran additionally due to Network Rail ban during the hot weather in Summer 2018 and was restricted to low steam with the Class 37 providing most of the motive power.
