OMG..........That is impresive! There must be well over 1000t behind that old dear but what a performance. Glad to see she is back in traffic with 401 today(28/3/09) with 37670 out next week and 37425 going for OTMR fitting after the MNR gala. THE TRACTORS ARE BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rumour has it that when new, the "EE Type 3" was the quietest diesel on the railway. But they had trouble with the exhaust system cracking, so they took out the silencer completely. No more cracking problems, but now it's apprximately the loudest diesel on the railway!
