In my opinion the SCOTRAIL CLASS 158s are probably one of the best DMUS SCOTRAIL has to offer don't get me wrong I like the 170 but I just think you get a better engine sound

Indeed, noisy little things. It seems they are so under-powered that the are only operated in digital mode: full power or idle. Their acceleration is fairly slow (compare to DB class 644 e.g.)
Believe it or not, these are far from the slowest DMUs we have here. Most other comparable DMUs from the 1980s to the 2000s take around three minutes to reach 60mph from a stand!
Don’t you just love the 158 thrash noise?
No
Love it
Love that groan noise when the train departs around notch 3
a 158 working with a turbostar? now I didn't expect to see that
It's not uncommon around here!
iiiiiiiiii☘
In the days of Central Trains, it was still far from uncommon
0:47 Godly Turbo 🔥🔥🔥🔥
it… its the brakes…
Class 158 are my favourite train thanks for the video
Class 90s was my favourite before when new ones took over
I've worked the 158s since they replaced the 47 Push Pulls on the E&Gs.
Gosh! I would hope that you enjoy doing it if you've been working with them since then?
I love it great video ❤️👍🏻
OK 🐑 0:02
I love class 158 screaming
2:06 is my favourite
Cummins just do the best sounding engines, both for the British Rail classes and for older Foden, DAF and ERF lorries!

@@ThingsWithEngines DB had a similar one: Class 628, also with fluid transmission and a locking torque converter. This was equally sluggish
Not as bad as other diesels
Loud engines are largely attractive to railfans. Here's an even noisier one: ruclips.net/video/JUBNr_e3ZqY/видео.html
Why the hell does the front look like that ewwwwe
It’s so that when two or more units are joined together, everyone can walk through the whole train instead of being confined to a single unit.
