ive met that man once aswel, back when i was about 10 years old though ;D, i got to signal a train from maesteg to cardiff central ;D, and a 37 came in on a diversion ;D, the good ol days eh? ;D

37401 was at tondu yesterday on the cwm & go railtour which was nice plus it was better as it got to tondu 15 minutes early
-
1750 horsepower from an English Electric 12CSVT diesel power unit - Top speed 80mph limited, capable of about 100mph in its youthful prime about 1970.

great sound, reminds me of the days when I was about 5-7 (1996-8) in Aberdare, now all the coal and stone traffic is hauled by 66 power but a 60 has worked up the line in recent years, I personaly think that the 37 56 and 60's are the best locos around oh and the Hall and Castle class and not too forget the 56xx and Pannier tanks.Great vid

Beautyful Locomotive. I ask myself how much horse power its Diesel Engine have and the top speed.

OMG i live by here, and if i remember right they were emptying thhe mines in the Garw Valley and now the line is all sealed of with weeds and stuff, i know that signal man

I take it the line is still in situe ? I think it is /was a bid for preservation for the 5 mile section Pontycymer-Tondu...

So much power in that engine! Love the noise! Sounds like a tiger growling.

I remember hearing the tractor for a good five minute's,, heading towards me as the crew accessed a couple of road crossings a mile or so up the line
