One of three Class 37s to be painted in the distinctive house colours of the Harry Needle Railroad Company, 37194 was one of the first privately owned 'spot hire' Class 37s used on the UKs rail network in the early 21st century. Returning to active mainline service in 2003, 37194 was regularly used alongside classmates 37087 and 37515 on a variety of railtours, spot-hire freight services, and even worked on both mainline and preserved railway passenger duties during this period.
Transfer to DRS came a few years later, with the locomotive withdrawn and scrapped in 2017.
Please note this is an early decorated sample which is subject to review/ changes.
