History

Re-numbered 37093 in February 1974, it was painted into ‘Police’ livery, complete with blue light, for a BR television advertising campaign in July 1985, before returning to a more traditional livery at Stratford in August.
It was renumbered 37509 in June 1986 and in 1989 allocated to the Freight Metals sector Thornaby pool. It finished its career with EWS and was cut up at Cardiff Canton in August 2005.
