Tractors on Test! | BR Class 37 | Northern Lines Electric

A pair of 37s are my traction for today as we run the final leg of a Network Rail test train on the lines that extend out of Preston towards Blackpool, what can possibly go wrong...?

Hello Moleman, Thank you ever so much for taking the time to create this entertaining video along my route! Thoroughly enjoyed it and had a good chuckle at the incident. Glad to hear you enjoyed the route too, few things planned for an update one being an update to the OHLE. The OHLE pack has since been updated with new models of the series 2 masts which are apparently better on resources and much more optimised along with correct dimensions. Other minor tweeks to also come plus hoping to finish the blackpool south line. Once again many thanks, take care and look forward to more videos from yourself. Regards, Tom On Track Simulation

Well what a route it is! It looks stunning

[@TheSpotify95]

What can possibly go wrong? :D 1) SPAD 2) Hitting a Virgin Voyager due to the SPAD 3) Not having speed limit signs showing on the HUD

[@LuckyGamerRBLX]

Moleman: Sweating like hell Me: Nice and cold in Australia :)

[@trainsimulatorspotlight6886]

Ha ha.. that was hilarious! I've got the Northern lines route.. I love it. Not got the electric version yet though... I think I'll grab it once I've managed to get the OHLE add on.

This is actually my local line, thanks for driving this Moleman, keep up the great work

[@ryanworthvalley]

Great video moleman would love to see one more vid on tsw before tsw 2 comes out. love the vids keep up the great work

lovely train. live st albans city station and some class 37s went by on route to NYMR last year. was great

I’m so glad you are back!

43:07 Oh look, there's the Virgin Voyager that you crashed into earlier on in the route... ;)

[@yorkshireladdylan9649]

I used to go down this line a lot and the scenery resembles real life I just go down this line for Blackpool but I caught a 37 pull in into Blackpool north behind my 158 that I was riding

[@class8007]

I can't stand the heat either. My house is so old it doesn't have AC either, but it does keep reasonably protected from the sun. Here in Tasmania, the summers are pretty similar to southern UK, but our winters aren't quite as cold. Personally, I'll take snow and 5 degrees every day of the year!

[@Moleman978]

Same here, I much prefer the cold weather!

[@dankstuff6127]

The winter is good for one bit the seaside

[@dankstuff6127]

I meant the summer 😂😂😂

[@spottig_pt2]

Don't worry moleman i will be here, always enjoying the content.

[@pook2830]

I only have ONE criticism with the two versions of the Northern Lines, and that's that my Dad's house is not there. He has a flat right on that piece of land that juts out between the Fylde line and the old Fleetwood line... it literally used to overlook Poulton box... but there are just garages in the sim. I minor issue with an otherwise great route though :)

They should of built your dads house in detail and labling it

Great video Pls do more like this Any chance of a MOD train on the ECML ?? When I say MOD not as in a MOD I mean ministry of defence

brilliant Video Moleman! i really enjoyed This :)

[@AllThingsTransport.]

Is it a coincidence I’m about to go see 2 37s on test runs tomorrow and Tuesday and one of thems the NR large logo one

It's a fun kind of hell - Moleman 2020

[@b30233]

"In warmer climates you have ac, here we dont".. When i visited the UK the lack of AC shocked me bc here in Canada its standard and our summer climates are pretty similar at least where I live, i have no idea how you survive without it tbh

[@wilfstor3078]

Ah you got the temp late I see. Southern Canada has been in the high 30s for about a month now. At least there was a breeze occasionally.

Can you please do a video on the North Somerset Railway because I'm thinking of getting it

[@yorkshireladdylan9649]

Also that 156 that stopped you outside of Preston was a barrow on Furness service

[@Robbo_13]

Barrow-in-Furness not Barrow on Furness

[@07Mr.Yoso21]

Wow mr moleman you should pay attention at the signals

[@yorkshireladdylan9649]

And that 158 was a york to Blackpool north train cos it has 3 coaches

[@jackhstproductions649]

Moleman please can you do the Morecambe Branch one day

Tractors. I approve already

Can you get a 747 out of City Airport? :D

Watching this on 6/8/20 at 15:35pm and if the train managed to reverse quick enough for the train that would of been epic, the scene in between 5:00 10:00 min mark

The classic moleman crash

[@TheSpotify95]

Indeed. Caused by a SPAD, of course. Who thinks I should go through the entire Moleman978 history and create a SPAD compilation?

@@TheSpotify95 yes do that

[@coolguy670]

6:45 Oh dear.

[@TheSpotify95]

Class 37 diesel vs moving Class 221 Voyager... yeah, we know which is going to win. And another SPAD to add to the list (remember Mountfield Movement?).

No AWS plunger?

[@Moleman978]

I'm using it, it just won't be on screen in every video, that was just for the review

[@illegalprime3626]

The enignes sounds are completely silent when at idle, can this be fixed? (in the video I mean).

[@Moleman978]

Afraid not, as then louder sounds are too loud and you can't hear me over them etc.

Why do you stop using your old hud? Its better than this one (such as hit has some transparency to see through) and it is still available.
