Inverurie Loco Works F.C.
Inverurie Loco Works are a semi-professional senior football club from Inverurie, in Aberdeenshire, in North East Scotland, who currently play in the Highland Football League and were founded in 1903 by workmen from the Great North of Scotland Railway Company (GNSR) who had their Locomotive and Carriage & Wagon Workshops at Inverurie, hence from where the football club got its name. On national railway company 'Grouping' in 1923, the GNSR became part of the London & North Eastern Railway, one of the UK's big four railway companies at that time, and the football club lived on.

Famous quotes containing the word works:
“My plan of instruction is extremely simple and limited. They learn, on week-days, such coarse works as may fit them for servants. I allow of no writing for the poor. My object is not to make fanatics, but to train up the lower classes in habits of industry and piety.”
—Hannah More (1745–1833)
