    A collection featuring the class 37/5's mainly from the 1980's & 90's, (with a couple from very recent)

    I never got a photo of 37501 when it was first painted in this colour originally so i have added a photo from Derby last year
    https://railway-photography.smugmug...ives/Class-37/Class-375-37501-37699/i-ZtDtZKn
    compared with
    37501 Teesside Steelmaster+37502 British Steel Teesside Moorthorpe
    https://railway-photography.smugmug...ives/Class-37/Class-375-37501-37699/i-mRBSnfw

    Also 37508 then and now
    https://railway-photography.smugmug...ives/Class-37/Class-375-37501-37699/i-mWBNgGn
    https://railway-photography.smugmug...ives/Class-37/Class-375-37501-37699/i-wBWd9HP

    Majority of the 37/5 photos were taken at Moorthorpe when they worked the double headed steel services
    Photos start here
