Ian Riley Engineering
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ian Riley Engineering is a railway engineering and spot-hire company, based in Bury, Greater Manchester.
The company used to own a fleet of Class 37 locomotives, but due to lack of work, they were gradually sold to other operators. The final four locomotives were sold to the West Coast Railway Company in May 2004. The company now concentrates on engineering. Details of the former locomotive fleet are shown below.
