Hopefully we see electrified service very soon! And if not, trains are perhaps one place where hydrogen is viable as a fuel source. But it is worth remembering that most of these are worn out and didn't run like this new, but it's amazing how far we've come - and what we used to consider acceptable! These locomotives are quite clean compared to steam engines. A cold start on those things was the better part of a day sitting still burning coal...

Check out the BR English Electric Class 37 locomotive videos on KZfaq for ALL kinds of smoke, fumes ,noise & FUN!!

If the Anti-Oil Fascists have their way, it will!

it's just soot

Same here too lovely 😍 👌

Yes :)

Yes

Cars and Engines: Love it! Keep those videos coming... Thank you...

I like diesel a bit I like regular gas a lot

Compared to US GE or EMD locomotives, they are junk.

Nah everyone knows that the flux capacitor takes a shit at 87 lol..... and absolutely nobody is crazy enough to push 88 !!

Hard to believe these noisy old junker diesels could go 20 mph !! Can these piles of junk really pull cars?

They aren't pieces of junk, some are just unreliable

Bro, the data he has put on the first one here is of WAP7(from wikipedia), which is an Indian electric locomotive. That loco in the video is not WAP7.

It is a british rail class 37 diesel locomotive.

I think you mean turbocharger of which it has two. It's an intercooler that the class 31 does not have.

@@UKHeritageRailways Ah, slapped handy for me. I thought it was a supercharger!

@@robertwilloughby8050 I believe this threat needs entered into the Oxford dictionary under the definition of "clamped". In your opening two words "interesting fact", you were instantly clamped 🤣💙 Excellent!

Most of the white "smoke" is actually vaporized diesel fuel, which is why you often see flames shooting out of the stacks.

Can't pull goods across the country using solar/wind just yet,but there are dreamers out there. Engineers should do feasability study, on LPG with diesel assist for a cleaner burn.Have read a science paper on just that topic....!

How come US EMD or GE diesels start smoothly, hardly any smoke, much less noise and start much faster?

Working on these was pretty difficult because every 'class' was different & took a fair bit of learning (remembering!) where everything was. Also each class had differing handling characteristics, with power delivery, traction effort, braking, top end running, heavy hauling revs, slow moving power (ie, easing up) etc. So each had to be gotten used to for every situation which was easier said than done. Drivers had their least popular types & for many that was the EE 2000 (Class 40) a horrid, noisy, awkward & very unreliable old bus, with poor visibility. For me it was that & the type 2 as we called it (class 25). Edit:- With the modern stuff a monkey could (& indeed do!) run them without switching on the brain because it's all done for you with tech information everywhere in the cab.

Yes, indeed

Listen*

Yes clank worthy junk.

That's the BR 'TOPS' classification numbers. Correct about the Class 37'.

1750? That’s not even as much as a gp9. Seriously? Those British trains are small and weak? Why did they even bother with 6 axles when a B-B wheel arrangement would still be able to do the same amount of work?

@@SouRwy4501Productions These Class 37 locomotives were built in 1960-1965. More wheels means less wheel slip. In the 1950s British Railways had planned a wide range of diesel locomotives to replace steam locomotives, which came in all sizes for different types of work. More recently, a reduced range of fewer electric and diesel types has made more sense. The British loading gauge is small by international standards because, being the first country to have railways 200 years ago, they had to build in existing towns and cities, and bridges and tunnels were made to a height that later proved limiting but could not be changed.

that is right BR wanted trains that would run none stop 24hr 7 days a week all year round, only stopping them for maintenance.

Thank you

Thank you for watching ;)

Hey it’s me I am watching from Phoenix AZ 4 PM Oct. 4. Some mornings I wake up like these trains one chug at a time.

The details were based on electric locomotive WAP7 of Indian railways

Holger Pentzien fuck greta

They are speaking: “soot, soot, SOOT, soot, soot, flame, SOOT!”

Superb

Don't belive that got to be more emissions

Yea, I can see that

Hi to India, Thanks for you watching

The details given based on electric locomotive WAP7 of Indian railways

@@hsde..7807 Then why put that caption about an electric locomotive on the shot of a UK class 37 diesel electric locomotive which is what is in the opening shot, especially as the video is about diesel locomotives cold starting?

@@UKHeritageRailways don't know sir 🤷🏻

@@UKHeritageRailways I didn't create this video!

@@hsde..7807 I was not suggesting that you did.

The details of first Locomotive was given based on electric locomotive WAP7 of Indian railways

W- wide gauge (1676mm) A- AC traction (25KV) P- Used for passenger services 7- 7th generation

LMFAO

Fuck off!

It would be more efficient to leave them running constantly.

"Carbon credits" wtf

Polluters? Creators of life you mean. All that carbon produced to feed the vegans with lush green leafs. All that soot to replenish the soil which vegans have killed. All that NOx to cleanse the harmful bacteria from our rivers as it's combined into your rivers and streams. Carcinogenic you say? Did you know what water is carcinogenic? How about all that plastic wrapping on the food you buy. Had your blood micro plastic levels checked yet? You probably should. It's carcinogenic 😉 how do you feel knowing every food product YOU (not me) buy is killing the plannet? These flaggers are all retired now. You're the only active polluter here. What's your excuse? (Trollig to make you laugh)

I love the smell of diesel in the air. It's much better than the stink of entitlement liberalism

@@imzackson "I love the smell of diesel in the morning. I want my eyes to burn."

@@TheSilverShadow17 Me too!!!!!!

These things probably need to get *thoroughly warmed up* before they run properly - which is likely to take close to an hour.
