SE&CR D Class No. 737

SE&CR No. 737 is a SE&CR Class D 4-4-0 "Eight-Wheeler" type steam locomotive that was designed by Harry Wainwright and built for the South Eastern and Chatham Railway (SE&CR).
It was built at Ashford Works in 1901 was delivered to the South Eastern and Chatham Railway (SE&CR) after it was constructed, where it was first numbered as 737.
After the "Big Four" grouping act had occurred, No. 737 was passed onto the Southern Railway where it was renumbered to 1737. After the nationalization that created British Rail, it was renumbered to No. 31737.
Following withdrawal from service in November 1956, it was stored for preservation at Ashford Works and later at Tweedmouth before being restored in 1960. It was later donated to the National Railway Museum in York.
As of today, SE&CR Class D No. 737 is still on static display at the National Railway Museum, having been reverted back to its original SE&CR livery and numbering. It remains as the Sole Surviving member of the SE&CR Class D.
