Clag = "Rollin Coal" to us here in the United States. I love this video and it's good to see someone else loves watching diesels do what they do best!

Its a big thing in the uk buddy, the old diesel engines were just powerhouses and a huge part of my youth..now all we have are ugly diesel trains with zero character..the engines we had in the uk were fabulous looking beasts...its great that you liked this...i often watch bits about american trains and trucks...great stuff 👍

Brings me back to the days of loco hauled 37s pulling out of Inverness with great clag. Good to hear most tractors are still in mainline use!

Thanks dude but I'm not really a trainspotter. Not in the sense that I stand by a line and take down numbers of passing locos. I'm a Basher...and 37's are my beasts. My hobby Is exstinct now as these beauties are all but gone. I don't see the point in trainspotting, but hanging out of the window of a Mk2 coach, right behind a 37 on full thrash with the wind and diesel fumes in yer mush.... Now that's heaven. Hellfire!

I loved choaking on diesel fumes in the 80s 90s best times ever for British locomotives on freight as I could always hear a tractor coming from miles away as they was always loud and lively they was and still are one of the best loco's on British railways networks as there's still a good 100 of these bad boys still in existence either preserved or still active on network rail duties!!! Drs are selling some more off again plus a few choppers they will probably go to Harry needle the 37s to West Coast/ian Riley/Harry needle let's wait and see!!!😎
