Britain used to create the most stylish locomotives

[@penskepc2374]

They definitely look better than any other European classic Diesels, I especially enjoy their take on the Bulldog nose.

[@bennickss]

@@penskepc2374 Mmm. The 37/40/peak/55 are why I like the EMD F/E series diesels.

[@philipstanley8142]

The latest foreign imported diesel locos from Canada, Spain etc have become more and more box like although I quite like the class 68 appearance.

[@MyUnoriginalUsername]

I suppose it's not fully British but the class 68 is very stylish in my opinion for a modern train

[@barrybradfordlocksport]

And now we create nothing the government has ruined manufacturing

[@Ferr1963]

03:10 Even though they have a Diesel engine, the Deltic has a characteristic, more revved up sound, which looks like it is going to explode, just like the Chieftain tanks. Typical of 2-stroke engines with opposing pistons. Nothing sounds like them. Fantastic compilation. It takes a lot of patience and love for trains to be waiting, no matter if it rains, snows, or 40 degrees in the shade.

[@RickyNowis]

Thrashes and best clags I have seen by modern and vintage diesel locomotives. Brilliant footage :-)

A diesel engine working hard, pulling a heavy train up a gradient or running at high speed for example.

The best sound in the world, diesel train engines

[@AllenORourke1954]

Great video, I remember the 37's double heading the iron ore trains up steep gradients to Consett steelworks here in County Durham, sweet music, nearly as good as the 9F's in the days of steam.....

[@planegaper]

Really the 9f was the height of Steam, after studying steam loco's around the world, all having their faults, the standard 9's took every innovation available to them , as well as all the tried a reliable methods, systems etc, and put it into one package.. It seems to a T all engineers and drivers loved them, they just worked, steamed well, made great power, and easy on the fireman.. those locos are legends in their own right..

[@AllenORourke1954]

@@planegaper I fully agree with you, I can also remember the 9F hauled and banked iron ore trains up here, fantastic machines...

Totally agree, love the sound of a 37.

[@Lolasdad4312]

I remember back in the 80’s living about 3k away from the ECML in Northumberland and hearing 37’s and 56’s at nights probably coal trains. I now live close to the same place and hear Azumas and 220’s. Thanks for sharing.

[@MalcolmCrabbe]

These modern loco's aren't a patch on the old ones for sheer grunt... These 66's and 70's just can't compete with the Deltic, 50's and good ol' 37s

[@LinesideSouthEast]

True, although I think the 70s and 68 do actually sound quite good when being worked hard.

[@bjoe385]

Lineside South East it’s just that they’re so powerful they rarely work at full power.

[@LinesideSouthEast]

Ben Jared That’s very true, I’m sure there lots of noise regulations that modern locomotives have to comply with as well.

[@AppalachianRailfan99]

As an American, born and raised, I find British diesel locomotives to be extremely intresting and boy do they make a growl!!! And they look so cool!!!!

Many thanks, you also have some pretty cool looking diesels in the US.

[@SMX815]

These behemoths are the real workhorses & the rumble of their engines gives me chills 👏🙏🙌🇬🇧

[@ginggur17]

I have a question, sorry if it sounds silly, but when there are two engines, either in tandem or one at both ends, how do both engines operate the throttles in unison please? Always wondered this since being a kid, I’m now 46 lol. The intercity 125 started that thought. Thanks in anticipation.

[@LinesideSouthEast]

In the case of the HSTs (Intercity 125) both power cars are under power as there is an electronic connection via the carriages. With diesel locomotives in top and rail mode this varies, sometimes they work in unison sometimes it’s just the leading loco working.

[@ginggur17]

Greetings from the States. Love how a number of folks stick their head out the passenger car windows. Can't do that over here for fear of someone getting a fleck of dust in their eye and suing the railroad for negligence!! Love your thrash over there.

Window hanging used to be a lot more common over here in the past. Can only really be done on private preserved railways these days.

WOW, great sounds in all the clips, especially the 16 minute 35 mark, it reminds me of the sound of a Lancaster Bomber flying over. Without sounding pathetic, it's choking me up, same with the 6 minute 35 mark, that one sound like a spitfire.

At 03:10 you see a British Rail Class 55 "Deltic" locomotive. They have a sound like no other Diesel locomotive due to their unique opposed piston triangular build.

Why wont they put the 42 and the 35 back on mainline would pull in a fortune

Getting a heritage diesel back to mainline standards would also cost a fortune. It would take many years before you made your money back.

@Lineside South East fair enough would be good to see them on the mainline though never seen one running is there any updates on that class 45 they were trying to refurbish for mainline traffic?
