Departing from English Electric’s Vulcan Foundry in August 1961, D6724 was briefly allocated to 31B March before heading to 30A Stratford the following month. A dependable member of the East London depot for the next five years its duties would have included Great Eastern main line and Cambridge line passenger diagrams, inter-regional turns, particularly the Manchester-Harwich ‘boat’ train, as well as parcels and freight services.

By now wearing small yellow warning panels, the arrival of increasing numbers of Brush Type 4s from the mid 1960s saw many of Stratford EEs pushed out with this particular example returning to March from August 1966. Over the next seven years it would pinball around various East Anglian depots before finally making the move to Thornaby in February 1974 when it was also renumbered 37024 under the new TOPS system.

It was involved in a major collision in 1980 that saw it gain plated nose doors at both ends, but other than a brief period of loan to Cardiff Canton in 1981 it was a solid but unexciting Eastern Region machine until it joined the exodus of Class 37s north of the border in May 1987, moving to Motherwell and then Eastfield.

This would only be short lived as it was accepted into the heavy general overhaul ‘refurbishment’ scheme at BREL Crewe exactly one year later emerging in Railfreight Metals livery in October 1988 as 37714, one of the ballasted Class 37/7 variants. Initially based in South Wales at Canton it became a Thornaby FMTY pool machine in May 1991 and was named Thornaby Depot at the open day in September 1992. Frustratingly it was moved on to Immingham just five months later and lost its ’plates.

It was back at Motherwell at the start of 1994 and now under the ownership of English Welsh & Scottish Railway received the revised version of that operator’s livery after an intermediate overhaul at Adtranz Crewe in April 1997. It was stored unserviceable from Toton in October 2000 but would be resurrected in May 2001 with 13 other ‘Heavyweights’ as part of a contract with Continental Rail (GIF) for construction of the AVE (Alta Velocidad España) high speed network in Spain. For its new career abroad it repainted in a light blue/dark blue livery in the same style as the maroon/gold scheme it previously wore.

It wasn’t repatriated until 2011, when it was one of six to escape the cutter’s torch. It joined Direct Rail Services with 37703/716/718 and was initially used for shunting duties at Daventry, although these were short lived. Placed on loan to the Heavy Tractor Group in 2016 it was repainted back into the classic triple-grey with Metals branding the following year and remains a stalwart of operations at the Great Central Railway.

Amazing kit for your puppy
Color: Blue
We’ve had 6 puppies over the years, and this is the first time we’ve had this wonderful little kit to welcome our little one home. We had the blanket with his litter so it smelled like them when he came home. He he loves that blanket, he loves the dog with the little heartbeat, and the teething toys. The 5 star review is because everything in this kit is so well made, really wonderful quality, and a great value. The blanket is a very nice thick plush, not some cheap one. The stuffed dog is big and fluffy and well made, the heartbeat works wonderfully, and the little chew toys safe and well made.i would encourage anyone who’s bringing home. A little one please get this first. It’s going to make your pup more comfortable when they get home, and will help then sleep better during the night and their naps. Very Well Done !

A must have for a new puppy.
Color: Pink
I just got my first new puppy in many years, and I was searching for ideas of what items I should get to be ready for her. A dog forum I belong to gave suggestions for items to prepare for a new pup. One of the items listed was a snuggle puppy. I was not familiar with the product, and did some research. I had always heard that lonesome puppies respond well to a hot water bottle and ticking clock for comfort. A friend had suggested a stuffed animal. I found all of that in one package - The Snuggle Puppy! And even better was the complete new puppy package. The blanket is adorable, very soft and the perfect size. The toys are perfect, and they include extra warmers for the puppy. I keep my girl in a kennel at night with her blanket and puppy. The first night I tried just the blanket, and she cried and howled for 15 minutes. Then I turned the heart beat on and put the puppy in the crate with her. Within 5 minutes she was quiet and stayed that way all night. I have used it every night since and not a peep. (It's been a week now). I would highly recommend these products to anyone bringing a pup home - it was a sleep saver for sure and she seems to love it.

Great for a small puppy
Color: Pink
Got these for my puppy, a German shepherd, while it was functional, she loved it, as it was chewability, durability and ease of use.

Heartbeat didn't last!
Color: Pink
This is a nice cuddly puppy. Our dog loves this in her crate. The puppy and the blanket wash very well. The heartbeat lasted for a couple weeks only!

My puppy went right to sleep
Color: Neutral
With having a new baby puppy sometimes they can have anxiety leaving their mother and siblings behind. This helped my puppy so much with the transition from being with them to being by himself. This cute adorable plush puppy has a quiet heartbeat that soothes my puppy to sleep. It is well made and serves the purpose it was intended for. I also loved that this came with teething toys that my puppy loves to chew on and the blanket is super soft.
