  • what a great video...sadly don't see 156's anymore in Shrewsbury, they were great DMU's

  • @JoeM001 Thanks for the comment, glad you enjoyed the vid.

  • Was this train running late? It sounds like the driver is pulling away in notch 7

  • @RianTrace84 It was running on time.

  • I spoke to a Northern driver today & he said the correct way to drive a 156 is to start in notch 3 & then go up to notch 6 & then full power when over 10 mph

  • @RianTrace84 they always do pull away at full power

  • @RianTrace84 Full-throttle acceleration is pretty normal on DMUs, especially on commuter routes like this one. If anything, the driver is being less aggressive than I remember from the 1990s, as he is waiting a couple of seconds (for the transmission to engage) before throwing in full power.

  • i love those 14 litre cummins engines such a joy listen to but the class 156 is my best super sprinter to be honest :)

    great vid :) 5/5
