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:
“His character as one of the fathers of the English language would alone make his works important, even those which have little poetical merit. He was as simple as Wordsworth in preferring his homely but vigorous Saxon tongue, when it was neglected by the court, and had not yet attained to the dignity of a literature, and rendered a similar service to his country to that which Dante rendered to Italy.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
