I never ever tire of hearing old diesel locos working hard. I think it’s just us engine freaks that understand what I mean by this. Most other people say it’s just an engine but we all know different 😉. 40’s and 50’s sound awesome too. Maybe it’s that huge V16 which never seems to be working hard no matter the load. Love the video. What a catch. Thanks for sharing with us all.

In fact 37’s have V12’s but also some were Ruston and some merrlees.the Dustin’s were straight 6’s as was the mirrlees. A completely different sound esp 37906!!!

I have never been interested in trains but totally fed up with the muck and drivel on social media I stumbled across the 37s. What a revelation and a pleasure.

I think they mean flat out as In the throttle is flat out at full power not the actual forward momentum being flat out. .

Those old 37s just seem to get better as time goes on,their a lot cleaner than they used to be perhaps they have now got the fuelling right after all these years.

The throttle is flat out ie full power. Not the forward momentum.

@reynardbizzar5461 Ай бұрын

Flat out can mean could mean a top speed of 25 mph if the gradient is against the loco. So yes it was flat out in both respects.

May I ask if your filming location is accessible for myself please and if so, how I could get there? Also, cracking video. Great sounds aswell👍

@lickeyincline 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks mate. Yeah it takes a bit of dedication to get to but it is doable. If you go to the Railway cottages at Blackwell and use the access path for the cottage fronts you can go down to the bottom of the path and use a ladder to get a view over the steel fencing. You’ll have a head full of conifer tree but its worth it 😁

@@lickeyincline Yeah and since you are actually lineside without a track safety certificate, you are trepassing on Network Rail property. Don't encourage others to follow in your bad habits because if something happens you will be a greasy stain under the wheels of the train you went to film and a very bad nightmare for the driver who runs you down.

See a flashing yellow signal - somethings going across the junction… As for the Class 37, sounds healthy - they just plod alone like a good old workhouse that they are 👍

@stevekelly5166 3 ай бұрын

Junction is another section ahead, at signal yellow. And who knows what the next signal is displaying on the diverging line? Not allowed to let the driver know if it is R/Y/YY or G. And it's not really going across a junction. It's just taking the slower, diverging route. Been doing this for 43 years, but nice to see I'm not the only person seeing the flashing yellow. Introduced for HSTs.

@andrewbrown6786 2 ай бұрын

@@stevekelly5166 a bit of route knowledge goes a long way. Even though it may be a ‘diverging route’ I/ we still called it a junction - interesting how you can do the same job, with the same tools, but use a variation on terminology according to which part of the country you’re in 🤷‍♂️

@animaltvi9515 Ай бұрын

For those moaning that its not flat out. In this case its referring to the actual engine itself being at full power ie working hard, not the actual speed of the train. . Just to clear that up.
