Have 37407 and 37218 now commenced service with europhoenix as they worked 3 workings yesterday. https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:73554/2024-05-16/detailed https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:73553/2024-05-16/detailed

Edit: 37407 and 37218 have made it to derby R.T.C today and I’m assuming that they will be based there for R.O.G. duties.

Ex DRS examples 37422/37716/37419 are in Crewe Horse Landing Sidings currently, presumably temporarily as these have not been purchased by LSL (Harry Needle got these iirc). I have heard on the grapevine that these may be moved to the Heritage Centre tomorrow, but this is to be confirmed.
Two remaining 37s are still at Gresty Bridge, one is 425 and the other is 424 (37558).

Why are the HNRC class 37s going to the Heritage Centre? Aren't HNRC going to send something to collect them? Also, when are 37424/425 getting picked up?

HNRC Cant send locos as they arent an Operator, just a rolling stock Owner/Leaser. So they need to arrange with Colas (who they work closely with for 37 related stuff) to move them.
424 and 425 also will be a while, as again, the company who have purchased them arent a mainline operator.
If i had to guess 424 and 425 would likely move by road to wherever meteor power is located (Burton i think with 37207?)

37207 was at Dudley but now at Great central Railway being looked after by the Heavy Tractor Group I understand. No idea if that is permanent or temporary.

Yeah 207 seems to have been all over the shop with almost no record from what ive seen
(Personally it should be restored back to its former CR Glory)

Reported on WNXX that Meteor Power have failed to complete the purchase so the locos are expected to go to the next highest bidder, which is HNRC

37409 now appears to be coupled to 37419/716/422 in the Horse Landing so expect that to be the LSL loco involved.

is that all the DRS 37s with new homes then?

It appears so. Useful locos that have had a lot of money spent on them in some cases so it's not surprising they've been snapped up.

Good to see, they’re all still being used aren’t they?

I have no idea but you would need to speak to the buyers of these locos to find out what their plans are for them.

we should soon see 37218 in ROG livery as 218 is now on long term lease to ROG.
If either of 069 and 423 are leased to ROG the livery will be applied to them as well. 407 will retain its BR blue livery for now and is also on long term lease to ROG.
