English Electric Type 3 goes from Tyseley to Telford
ON PROMINENT display at the Telford Steam Railway is privately owned Class 37 No. 37263.
The loco arrived at Horsehay, Shropshire on May 24 from Tyseley Loco Works, where it has been based for the past few years.
It is a much larger loco than normally seen on this railway. Its restoration will be continued, but it is not expected to see regular operation here, with visits to other railways more likely.
No. 37263 is seen on July 15, with the smoke coming from a steam loco in the station behind. Picture: PETER NICHOLSON
