Lived next to the Rymney line for 60 years, grew ip with theese sounds, it gets in your blood.great memories of better days and machines.

Great video & these are what I call real trains! Those engines are the best hands down!

Excellent footage - felt like a kid again, and the scenery is wonderful. Thanks.

Looked after these 37's for many years when I worked for BR / EWS and DB

About as good as it gets 👍 thoroughly enjoyed the lot👏🏻

It's such a shame that some of these engines are scrapped now. I remember being behind them in the Highlands of Scotland in the late 80's.

A lot of the37's that was stabled at Cardiff came from the Eastern region from Stratford, l was at ripple lane as a driver we had 31's 37's and 47's

Those were the days. Lovely shots.

Opening shots are at Rhymney Station I use this line several time a week. The line is going to go back to twin track within the next couple of years with increased services from Rhymney to Cardiff. They have allreay placed a loop at Tir-phil Station and completely rebuild and extended Tir-Phil

I find it hard to believe that a human being can drive a Class 37 and not smile at some point on the journey.

Loved working on those in Rhymney

Thanks. I had lots of fun editting this footage!

Heaven <3

The old 37's were slow and strong , some of the numbers on 37's was at sratford on the Eastern region, the depot l was at was a side depot all ower engines came from Stratford we had 31's 37's and 47's back in the 70's some of the engine that was stabled at Cardiff came from Stratford when we got newer ones 37's that is ,

I worked on the re-signalling project on this line 2013-15. A lot of changes since then!

Great to class 37s on Private Railways 🛤 👏 Wonderful

Why didn't you film the station names so we know where you are. Apart from that, great footage and sounds 😀

When was this?
