Number '1' end cab of 37 884 'Cepheus' at Clapham Junction
A close-up view of the Number '1' nose end of class 37 diesel locomotive 37 884 'Cepheus' coupled to withdrawn class 456 EMUs 456 024, 456 009 and 456 014 at Clapham Junction with the late winter sunshine highlighting the front end details on these iconic former BR locomotives built between 1960 and 1965 to good effect. The class 37s are the last of the breed of former British Rail diesel locomotives with the pronounced 'nose' ends with this distinctive style of front end design also being applicable to the members of the BR class 40, class 44, class 45, class 46 and class 55 Deltic locomotives. The odd locomotives out were the class 55s as the class 37, 40, 44, 45 and 46 had three windows on their front ends compared to the class 55 Deltics with only two windows.
