Channel 4's 'The Other Side' followed a group of Class 37 bashers on the North Wales coastline during the final weeks of loco hauled services - classic stuff!!! This was aired in 2000.

My god this is HILARIOUS! 😁 Watching this has cheered me right up, 1000% more fun than I was expecting. These guys are absolutely bonkers, and good on them! They've found what makes them happy and its all good clean fun. 20+ years later the 37s still have one heck of a following, and deservedly so. Geat locos, an iconic design.

A sniff of the barmaid’s apron pretty much floors me now but when I was younger I could drink all day and through to the next morning and kid myself I’d drunk myself sober! I’m Scottish though and grew up in a tiny wee village where the accepted legal drinking age was 12 and you’d end up at a party on the beach and have a blast! I’m 46 now and can’t drink for shite!

Superb, took me right back to the late 70’s / early 80’s days when I was 15/16/17/18/19 years of age bashing 26’s / 27’s and 40’s and then, early to mid 80’s bashing the 37’s (108 and 111 spring to mind IIRC) in Scotland on several 7 day rovers (rancid festers lol 😂). Crazy days (and nights), seriously tiring but the enjoyment blew the tiredness away. I remember one occasion behind a 37 en-route from Glasgow Queen St towards Crianlarich and beyond, where the train stopped in the middle of nowhere, the guard leapt off and helped an elderly lady down from the carriage and through her garden gate to her house (which backed onto the railway) along with her shopping. Guard leapt back on and off we went with big thrash and wheel slip, Imagine that these days 😂 😂 Great Fun!

Does anyone know where I can find info on where I can sign up for a tour? Haven’t been on a proper train journey for donkeys years. Doesn’t matter what part of the uk it’s in, I’ll sell my kidneys if I have to.

"There's no youth coming into bashing these days..." Certainly not true anymore. Most bashers I know are young and it seems a quite young hobby nowadays. Unfortunately the cranks here would likely refer to us as 'neds'. But it's just a generational thing, they relate to the 37s and missed them on their withdrawal (though I'm glad to see they're back on the Cumbrian Coast)... My generation grew up with Valenta-powered HSTs so that's what we had until GC MTUtilated their power cars. Dare I say we're also better behaved? Though sometimes too well behaved.... I think we lost something when flailing became frowned upon, for example. Harmless if done carefully.

I took up bashing 2 years ago, but I find Britain a boring country to bash, so the continent sees my tweed & Interrail takes my cap. I'm planning to go back to Austria soon, Hungary's just like going back to the 70s (especially away from Budapest). I've had recommend to me the Czech Republic, my erstwhile home from long before I was a basher, & I can't wait to check it out (pun not intended). France can be rewarding if you know where to look, especially around Paris, & Belgium has some great stuff too. Switzerland is past its best & would've been heaven 10 years ago but is worth a visit just for the quality of the timetabling late into the night. Poland is a tough country to bash because all their good stuff's reservation compulsory. Same with Sweden & its frustrating Wild West privatisation model. Italy is an unknown to me & I want to go there to see what it's like.

I grew up with 455s on my home region, Intercity 225s on the East Coast, Pendos on the West & those horrid high-speed DEMU juddernauts everywhere else. I was also witness to the electrification of much of the Western Region. I never did get up to the Cumbercoast for haulage because I couldn't afford the fare that far from London.

@ccityplanner1217 2 жыл бұрын

One of the main reasons I prefer the continent to Britain is that the British railways take a draconian stance on basher behaviour. I have never encountered any trouble abroad. France? Fine. Hungary? Fine. On my first train in Austria I got in some flailing with a come-back passenger sitting on the seat behind me. In Germany it's so normal they even have a hashtag for it (#FensterAuf). Even in Sweden, yes Sweden, the land of health & safety, I got through a ticket inspection while flailing (the Black Trains have a mega-droplight in the dog compartment, like the stretcher window but not quite that big), & the guard tapped me on the shoulder only because I couldn't hear him enter over the sound of the brakes. The most trouble I've had with it is a Walloon who told me opening the windows was not allowed, but from further research I'm pretty sure he was just an arsehole who lied to me because he wanted the window closed (a Ctrl+F search for “fenêtre” in the SNCB conditions of carriage returned nothing of the sort).

Apparently, 37408 was replaced by 37419 after 408 ran away and crashed into a empty coaching stock diagram. The Driver (who worked for Arriva and not EWS) claimed that the reason the engine ran away was because he saw children about and thought the engine had been tampered with. I wonder what would become of 37408 if it didn't run away?

You know when they talk about the tragedy of cut up Tractors.............well the kettleheads thought the same when the Smellies came to replace them........history rhymes. But I agree with Andrew, in nearly no railway in europe there is as much variety as there used to be in the eighties and nineties. Now there are less loco manufacturers, and everything is standardized down to the bodyshells. And then there is that Multiple-Unit fever, fast enough for passengers, louder than loco hauled trains and useless for anything but carrying passengers.
