In 2003 37717 was sent down to bank the Margam to Corby loaded steel coil, with 60045 on the front and 37717 at the rear it proved to be very loud with plenty of thrash enjoy.

Due to Covid19, my neighbours get to hear this vid quite often now. Even better with my subwoofer on full.

This has got to be one of the best vids on 37s. I'm guessing you enjoyed that run up the bank !! Continual Effin Thrash !! C'mon !!! I did/said same as you when my mate took me from, Shrewsbury to Dee Marsh. Coming back via Crewe. Summer night, all windows open , both engine room doors open, 37213 screaming on full chat !!! Nouse !!! Not noise, Fucking Music. An they get paid for it Lol. No wonder my Dad was deaf in his later years. BR man 44yrs, love him. Keep it up. These new loco's, got no style. 37s got the look And sound awesome. Thanks for posting.

Thanks, and yes we try to treat them well most of the time but at the top of the Lickey its straight off the power and onto the loco brake as there is a quick stop after the sand drag.

There’s nothing in the world that comes close to a 37 at full tilt and under maximum load except the RR Merlin. Music to the ears both!

Do you have to isolate your TPWS when you're on the back banking? Thinking of signal grids etc.

I have the weight written down somewhere but mislaid some of my old railway books so will update when I find them think it was about 1800-1900 tons

Ok,fair play to it. I thought a 60 would have managed that alone, but obviously not if you were there! :)

Be nice to your engine - come of the power one notch at a time over half a minute or so if you have time - especially when it's been really working.....
