luckymucklebackit Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 From 1988 until 1991 the loco was based at Motherwell Depot as part of the Class 37 Hunterston Pool (FMGM) with each of the locomotives being named after a British Steel Corporation facility in Central Scotland with the exception of 37320 which was named "Shap Fell". 37313 never received a name, rumour was that it was due to be named "Calder" but that works (in Coatbridge) closed around the time the locos were being named. Imperial was named after the Tube finishing plant in Airdrie, 37310 (37152) B.S.C. Ravenscraig 37311 (37156) B.S.C. Hunterston 37312 (37137) Clyde Iron 37313 (37145) 37314 (37190) Dalzell 37320 (37026) Shap Fell 37321 (37037) Gartcosh 37322 (37049) Imperial 37323 (37088) Clydesdale 37324 (37099) Clydebridge 37325 (37108) Lanarkshire Steel 37326 (37111) Glengarnock Jim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
