What would we do without the 66 these surely must be the most successful diesel locos to ever run in the UK and we must remember the basic design has been here since the 80s with the 59s ?

They are certainly the new workhorses of the UKs freight network :)

Maybe cause of the quick move to a high notch, not sure. Cheers though :)

Like many of the vehicles of today , class 66 are being fitted with stop start technology, some even have control on how many cylinders run on idle , and the EMD 710 as the most numerous locomotive prime mover in the world is being developed further so it almost runs on thin air? And although its a V12 its also a two stroke diesel . I think the loco was fine , just an impatience driver !

3:12 does anyone know why it sounds like the engine rpms drop slightly, is there a delay in fuelling? Noticed all EMD710's do it

I believe the clutch engaging in the turbo after initial combustion. Although i could be wrong

Well this is new information for me then.. every time I see/hear a 66 idling their engine never turns off. Only thing I hear is the engine revving down
