Product Code: ACC3152 | ACC3161-DCC
(Pre-Order Due 4th Quarter 2025)
Production Details:
The introduction of Class 156 ‘Super Sprinters’
on the West Highland from January 1989 and on the Far North/Kyle
lines in the May triggered an exodus of Class 37/4s to freight work.
By the end of that year, Laira, Motherwell and Tinsley had gained
allocations, while Immingham and Thornaby both acquired three locos
each in the middle of 1990, by which point half the sub class were
south of the border. One of these was No. 37414, which was on china
clay duties in Cornwall until transferred to the North Lincolnshire
depot’s FABI pool that September. This loco, which retained its
Western Region-style lamp irons at the No.2 end only, had been
repainted in the Roundel triple grey scheme with Distribution decals
in August 1989, but quickly swapped these for more appropriate
Construction brandings after its move.
