A quick snippet at some of the then EWS 37/4's that were once based at Motherwell then Toton then Eastleigh based locomotives!

Seen on charters at Clapham Junction and also at Old Oak Common TMD and Acton Yard.

The examples included are 37401, 37405, 37406, 37410, 37411, 37416, 37419, 37422 and 37425.

All moved to DRS ownership. For 37405, 37419, 37425, all are now overhauled and in use (along with 37402 of the recent former DBS examples) with DRS. 37422 is currently having its overhaul finished and will also shortly be joining the others in the active DRS fleet.

37401 is owned by DRS, but for now is being returned to use and under the guise of Mary Queen of Scots in Intercity Mainline livery at Bo'Ness. Being looked after by the railway, untill DRS require it for use.

37406, 37410, 37411 and 37416 were not so lucky (these, along with 37427, 37417 and 37426) were sold to Booths for parts and scrapping, these deemed not required and generally where in a far worse condition than thought.
