On 18 August 1961 72003 Clan Fraser is stabled on Glasgow Polmadie Shed (66A). The Clans were a small group of ten engines, a further order of 15 for the Southern Region was cancelled owing to the 1955 Modernisation Plan. 72000-04 all ended up at Polmadie and were withdrawn en masse in December 1962 and summoned to Darlington Works for scrapping. The final member to be withdrawn was 72006 Clan Mackenzie off Carlisle Kingmoor (12A) in May 1966.
