Descrizione dettagliata
37418 La società delle Highlands Loram Rail
Depositata da EWS a Motherwell nell'aprile 2005, la locomotiva n. 37418 fu acquistata dal conservatore Steve Beniston da Toton alla fine del 2007. La precedente locomotiva n. 37271 (costruita come D6971) trascorse inizialmente un anno nello scalo ferroviario di Allelys a Studley, prima di essere trasferita, in modo piuttosto appropriato, alla East Lancashire Railway, da cui prese il nome nell'aprile 1994. Ridipinta con la stessa livrea EWS, sebbene con il nome dell'epoca Railfreight Petroleum. Pectinde, entrò in servizio sull'ELR quasi immediatamente.
Purtroppo, un guasto al motore l'anno successivo lo ha messo fuori servizio fino al 2015, quando era a metà di una nuova verniciatura con un grande logo. Nel luglio 2017 è stato trasferito a Barrow Hill per ulteriori approfondimenti, che alla fine hanno portato alla stipula di un contratto di noleggio a lungo termine con Colas Rail. Questo si è finalmente concretizzato nel novembre 2018, quando la Classe 37/4 è tornata sulla linea principale, ora completamente rifinita nella sua livrea anni '80, completa del logo del "cervo" delle Highlands e del suo classico... Un comune Gaidhealach nome (dal nome dell'organizzazione che promuove l'uso del gaelico scozzese) che indossava tra ottobre 1986 e febbraio 1991.
Il suo primo anno di noleggio Colas lo ha visto utilizzato nelle curve dei pendolari Cardiff-Rhymney, nei treni di prova di Network Rail e nei lavori infrastrutturali/merci, mentre nel 2020 lo ha spesso trovato in collaborazione con il salone NR n. 975025 CarolinaNel settembre 2022, Loram Rail, con sede presso il Derby RTC, ha assunto l'assunzione del n. 37418. Oltre al suo Carolina In seguito ai suoi compiti, che continuarono, la locomotiva era comunemente impiegata nei treni navetta tra Toton e Derby in concomitanza con il programma di ricostruzione "Hawk" da MRA a JNA-Y, nonché per lo spostamento di materiale rotabile sia di vagoni che di carrozze.
Nel gennaio 2024 è stata ridipinta nei colori aziendali della Loram Rail: rosso fuoco, nero e bianco, rendendola una delle locomotive più riconoscibili dell'attuale rete ferroviaria.

The improvements to the grilles and windscreen surrounds plus the introduction of the working fan have really lifted this model to a good standard. The sound is excellent and the lighting is reasonable and once the buffer beam detailing is fitted it looks very realistic.
Great model probably one of my favourite locomotives that I own, top quality from the exclusive box to the model itself.
Another awesome model and fantastic box design
Well on track to being the ultimate Class 37. The improvements over previous runs make a real difference and address several areas where the model previously lagged behind.
The only thing that still catches my eye on the modern era examples is the missing cab radio stack. It’s a very visible feature through the cab windows on the real locomotives and stands out once you notice it. A quick 3D print solves the problem, but I’d love to see it included from the factory in future releases. With the cabs otherwise being so well detailed, it feels like a small omission on an otherwise excellent model
Another great model for the collection. Looks great and runs well out the box.
Unfortunately mine arrived with one of the windows pushed in and a window screen wiper detached in the box. The window was easy to fix but the window screen wiper was difficult due to the size. Hence 4 stars.
Outstanding in every area ! The paintwork is upto the standards of the house along with silky smooth running and the all new rotating roof fan even on dc control. And as always comes in a fantastic dazzling exclusive box.
Another superb example of this continuously improved tooling. The striking Loram livery is superbly brought to life here.
Quality product as always
I’ve lost count on how many accurascale locos I’ve in my collection, but after all this time none of them fail to impress me. The build quality and finish are fantastic. My only regret is that I didn’t go for sound fitted.
Another excellent loco and livery application.
Another masterpiece from Accurascale. A predictable high standard of detail with excellent representation of the Loram livery. Adding the bufferbeam pipes is a bit of a chore, factory fitted detailing at one end at least would be much appreciated. Lovely box. All in all Accurascale have come up to their usual high standard in all departments. Batch 4(?) of Tractors next & hopefully an indication of the third batch of Deltics.
Loco arrived in perfect condition! Couldn’t fault it.
Love this new livery on this class 37418 Loram thank you accurascale.
great modern livery for a class 37 thank you accurascale
amazing addition to the fleet.
Simply stunning! Love the "KFC" livery. All good on the rolling road. Looks like another great runner in prospect. Regret not getting a sound version though. Solid and robust detail generally bar a couple of metal door footplates found in the box. Not sure that the design upgrades make this tractor substantively better , but then the bar was already a high one. However another brilliiant effort all things considered.
Well worth the wait for this stunning loco.
Brilliant model, livery application top notch
I didn’t think a loco could get better than the previous 37s but this amazing. Working fan looks amazing the other improvements are top notch and this livery is awesome.
Another lovely model with an attractive, to some, colour scheme. As with previous models, it runs well and the sound is excellent. I do like the way that Accurascale do not just rest on their Laurels, but that each round of models seems to include further detail and innovations. The only problem with that is it makes me think, why couldn't they have done this for earlier runs. However, you can only innovate from experience.
Really nice looking contemporary scene model. Best Class 37 tooling by a long way. If only the stainless steel kick plates were secured better.
I have yet to run it in, but I have run it round the layout with no problems. The layout is DC so I will not be adding a decoder and I will not be adding the extras as I don’t know how and possibly damage the engine.
Excellent model again looks fabulous
Another Class act from Accurscale
Excellent model well done Accurscale looks a picture going around detailing is perfect.
Fantastic crisp livery, Runs very smoothly. The 37's take some beating. Well done Accurascale.
