Entering service as the English Electric Type 3, the British Rail Class 37 diesel locomotives were built at the Vulcan Foundry in Newton-le-Willows in a Co-Co configuration, based on locomotive designs for export markets. British Railways first placed an order for forty two class 37 locomotives in January 1959, the first of which was delivered in November 1960 and entered service on 2 December with the last of this original batch was completed by mid-1962, by which time further orders had been placed. The last of the 309 locomotives built were delivered to the Western Region on 9 November 1965, originally numbered in the range D6700-D6999 and D6600-D6608. Many Class 37 locomotives were refurbished in the 1980s which extended their operational life. As a result, Class 37 remains in service to this day as one of the longest serving classes on British railways.
