Class 37 Mega Thrash. Crank it up.

[beast66005]

Give me a shed anyday. These old 37`s are just too weak, noisey and under powered. im a main basher of 66`s, ive had over 30 you know, not many can beat that.

Ahh, the unmistakeable exhaust note of an English Electric! Music to my ears...motor music, that is. Thanks for posting friend and cheers from across the pond.

[irelandbloke]

Lovely

Nothing quite like serious 12CSVT thrash, thanks :)

ye gods, overloaded, wonderful, cheers.

[MrStapletonRoad]

@noelist No probs;-)

It was booked for a single 37/7 to take 28 loaded HAAs over Porthkerry viaduct at that time. Superb slow hard work it was too. I recall two trespassers walking in front of 37895 as it entered the viaduct causing the train to stop. The noise was immense as the train re-started without a single slip but it was very loud. Superb video by the way!

I live looking onto the Vale line as we call it and I do miss the sound of these loco's

Especially at night!!

[gavin37688]

Superb how i miss 37's pulling heavy freight making these nice thrashy sounds:)

[smleonard55]

There are many great utube videos out there but this takes some beating. Loads of colour, lighting, character, composition and sound. A hard working loco in an idyllic setting and intelligent use of sound does it for me, showing the railways doing what they do best!

[MrStapletonRoad]

@smleonard55 Many thanks

[edsutton115]

Now THAT is thrash!

[robmasterman]

Absolutely superb, the 66's that now use this line don't come anywhere near the 37 for spectacle....Thanks for this one...Bob

[MrStapletonRoad]

@robmasterman Thanks Bob

[dieselmanmike]

Best of British traction thrashing over great british engineering, makes me sad that we did so much and now so little. Fabulous clip though, great sound !

[MrStapletonRoad]

@dieselmanmike So true Mike, Thanks for checking it out.

[NN2Blue]

Great stuff - straight to "Favs" - Thanks for sharing!

Mike

[S2RUF]

Fantastic sound! Stu

[balmesh]

Great! Reminds me of shopping in Liskeard and missing a China Clay coming up from the workings (forget the name) and the sound was all over the town! . . . Alan

[MrStapletonRoad]

@balmesh That,ll be Moorswater, yep its a massive climb from there to Liskeard.

[balmesh]

To MrStapletonRoad

Yes, got it in one. Not sure if it's still open but it was a beaut of a climb, they had to split the train into two for a start.

[kevatcrewe]

That's what I call a MGR coal train! Seemed to go on forever, surprised a Class 37 could shift it, just proves how awesome they are!

[MrStapletonRoad]

@kevatcrewe Too right.

[Bish66]

Splendid wheel slip at 18 seconds. Absolutely DREADFUL! Top notch stuff if you'll excuse the pun!

[MrStapletonRoad]

@Bish66 Cheers bud,

[HSTHoward]

Truely stunning.

[MrStapletonRoad]

@HSTHoward Thanks Howard.
