Classic traction in the form of Class 37 locos hauling the Easter Highlander to Aberdeen seen passing through Broughty Ferry northbound with the return leg running through Monifieth.

Two very nicely panned passes.

Nicely filmed video of the class 37s.

Thanks for the comment and always worth capturing these locos in action as they don't pass this way very often.

Yes great work Stephen, and it was a shame they shut off the growl as the train approached the station. Glad I got out of your way....Scott

Thanks for viewing and it was a pity that the crew appeared to slacken off somewhat as its the distinctive sounds of these first generation locos including the HST that make them worth going out to capture.🎥👍

Good Day Stephen. My email railfan bud Scott was down the platform from you getting his photo(s) and he forwarded your vid out. Looks to have been a number of interested parties there catching the action, and well worth it I'd say! There's not much good passenger service like that here in Coquitlam (Vancouver), BC Canada... Currently only a once a week VIA Canadian, and a few daily West Coast Express commuter trains that only run early AM and after 1600 Hrs return. All the rest is freight only. Cheers and Happy Easter.

This was actually a special easter excursion train and not one of the regular service trains which are frequent on this busy route between Edinburgh and Aberdeen. This line sees little freight activity as unlike Canada and the US where the distances are much greater, most time critical freight is nowadays transported by road trucks. Thanks for viewing and the comment👍

I think that they slackened off when they approached the station as there is a slight down grade there so I did not get the loud growl I was hoping for. Anyway it gets you out of the house so thanks for viewing.
