37674 was new as D6869 on 23rd August 1963 from English Electric Vulcan Foundry, and was first allocated to Landore. It was renumbered to 37169 in May 1974, later went through a Heavy General Repair to become 37674 in June 1987. Stored at Motherwell in December 2004, and sold in 2007, after which it was moved to Kirkby Stephen East, then to the Wensleydale Railway in 2014, where it was returned to operational status. In December 2020 it moved on, eventually arriving at Strathspey in November 2021.
