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.

Perfect fit and great quality for the price
This suit was perfect for my son. The fit was exactly as expected. The quality is excellent for the price—it feels well made and durable enough to last through multiple wears. It doesn’t feel cheap or flimsy at all. It also looks really good on him. Clean, polished, and great for formal events like weddings or parties. Overall, a fantastic value with great quality and a great fit.

Missing items
Color: Sky Blue, Size: 16
Was missing the tie that is supposed to come with it and it looked like it was tried on and thrown back in the bag. The sleeve to the jacket were rolled up.

Excellent Quality, Great Value, Great Look. Highly Recommend
Very well-made, there are some minor imperfections in the cuff sewing that aren't really noticeable when on. Liner is quality, color is spot on, and it fits true to size. If you're in the market for a toddler blazer and pants, you can't go wrong with this one in terms of quality, price, and the cut is perfect for a very polished look. There were a few loose strings to be clipped, but everything was correctly sewn and well. None of them affected the seam strength. The pants have a button and elastic on the waistband to make adjusting the waist size easier.

Great boys slim fit suit for weddings, church, or special events
Color: Medium Grey, Size: 12
Great kids suit. Comes with a jacket, pants, and tie. Does not have a shirt. Fits as expected. Classic cut on the lapels. Great quality materials. Well made pants and jacket. The color is consistent without any fade or dark spots that can happen with lower quality fabrics. Looks great on. My son loves it. Says it is not restrictive, he can move easily in it. Highly recommend for church, special events, weddings, etc.

Nice high-quality, light weight suit for a tween!
Color: Navy Blue, Size: 10
This is such an attractive suit for a tween boy! My son loves dressing up, and this is his new favorite suit. He really likes the double-breasted style and the light weight of the fabric so that it isn't too hot. The tie that came with it gives major Harry Potter vibes which we weren't expecting, but he has lots of other ties that he also enjoys pairing with it. The size seems right, and it fits him well. He says it is very comfortable. I'm happy with the quality and the navy color.
