1629:(Privately owned) No 37263 Built by the English Electric Vulcan Foundry in 1965 for British Railways, carrying the Pre-tops number D6963, and was allocated to Darnall. Originally allocated to many Eastern Region depots, the loco then moved to Scotland, before moving to Cardiff and then more locally to Toton and Bescot. Her last passenger train was worked in 1998 under Trainload Freight West, transferring to EWS ownership in 1998 where 37263 was stored in late 1999 before being withdrawn. Initially she went to the Dean Forest Railway but then moved to Tyseley Locomotive Works for a number of years before coming to Telford in 2017.

That site is now occupied by a commercial development.
