Class 37's fitted with Central Wales line headlights (1960's & 1970's) - top page
The July 1970 edition of 'The Railway Observer' (p.225) records 6889 as then fitted with a headlight whilst the WR stock allocation sheets record fitting taking place on 1/11/1970. However, a published photograph dated 21st August 1968 shows 6889 as being fitted with a headlight then. Headlight removed September 1974 subsequently re-fitted November 1976 - mid 1977.
