Hands down one of the best sounding locos on todays railways
@raybesserdin75422 жыл бұрын
For someone who lives all the way down in Australia, 10/10 for superb footage of what has probably become my favourite British diesel loco. (I watch all the films I can). The 37 delivers the sort of raw engine sound, with accompanying smoke that makes rail power so stirring to watch. Great video. Thank you.

The class 37's are my favourite loco's of all time, that exhaust sound & the turbo whistle is absolutely classic. Pity this video shows only 2 of them.

Beautiful livery on the 37403. As are so many on our fabulous railways. May the class 37's hold their own in years to come :-)

Miss this soundtrack honestly, rode these almost daily back in 2017/18 going between Yarmouth and Norwich. Wasn't long before I was timing my trips back home from Norwich to get on the 37 instead of the 2 car DMU.

Well, britains railways will be electrified, so probably an emu if the line gets 3rd rail or overhead, but it will be sad because, these locos won't run in passenger use, because the 67s pull the British Pullman and sometimes class 66s, 37s will only be usage for freight and test trains, but then again there is a 37 that still pulls a special train, hopefully it doesn't get replaced

Think the class 37's are a superb design. I am wondering why there are 2 loco's for only 3 carriages and both engines are running. seems a massive waste of fuel [ im not clued up on trains ]

Two locos in case the lead one fails as most trains are now DMUs and cannot couple to them.

They are class 37s, not 37's. No apostrophe needed!
@isobelmackellaig7033 жыл бұрын
You do not require an apostrophe between the 7 and the s of 37s. Apostrophes are needed only for the possessive case as in " the class 37's livery" or to indicate an omission. This was not the case in the title of the video and it irritated me so much I missed good clips of the class 37s!
