A magnificent collection of Tractor Thrash and tones! Hats off to you for creating such a great memory of this charismatic class.

Love these growlers I could hear them at around 2am on a cold wet windy night I could hear there engines from 2 miles away there was always tractor action going through Stalybridge Station in the early 1980/90s they're true brutes and beasts and the best loco's ever built in the swinging 1960s that's why 100 still survive in preservation + on the mainline! Good video 🥰😍🤩

Same here 1980-84. Only way to make up a wage was to work O/T + Sundays but for all that is was varied and interesting. Traction was good too, 40's, 45's, 46's, 47's plus the odd Deltic now and then (boiler jobs). Enjoyed it all. Left the railway in '84 for much better paid work and every weekend off! But still miss the old boys and banter!

Craziness. It's almost as if they have some kind of gigantic lead-lined boxes that block radiation! And some kind of mechanism by which the locomotive can control the train brakes! Some of this technology is indistinguishable from magic, I tell you.
@GaryNumeroUno7 жыл бұрын
No. The radiation being transported has deteriorated to a safe level of 5084 rels per minute which means only the wagons glow now. No real need for a tail lamp either because you can see the last wagon at night by its greenish glow!

@takethehighroad50275 жыл бұрын
will be due to weight of the carrages its pulling and also possible inclines it will travel so will need a lot of power
@ianjones41164 жыл бұрын
Alot of double heading on flasks, may be due to what is in the Flask, you wouldnt want that train failing in a section Lol. 2x37s 2x flasks= Very Heavy Lol. Triple headers didnt seem to be that heavy, maybe it was originally a double, but one failed, 3rd being rescue engine ?? Who cares, they look and sound well. Keep up the good work.
