Diesel Gala & Beer Festival 2024: Power handle open Colas Class 37 no. 37219 "Jonty Jarvis" erupts out of Harmans Cross with the 09.39 Corfe Castle to Swanage train, comprising the visiting London Transport 4TC unit. The name "Jonty Jarvis" was previously carried by DRS Class 37/0 no. 37229, since scrapped, and remembers a young lad who died of meningitis and in whose memory much fundraising has been achieved in support of others who suffer from this disease.
