    Magic ! I remember about 1978 being in an oil depot right next to the Newcastle to Carlisle line when 45 iron ore tipplers pulled by 2 class 37s stopped at the signals right next to me . The signal cleared and the driver gave it some welly, the noise and air vibration was almost frightening. Absolutely awesome. 37s rule

    I'm sure we all love the shape of the Class 43 HST power cars. But I think the next best classic diesel locomotive is the Class 37 - those things don't like to hang about do they!

      The 43s and their Mk3 coaches are an elegant design that has aged extremely well, the 37s have a menacing look and sound but are equally cool, they are both British icons of the railways.

    I didn't know you could do an italian tune up on a loco! The load wasn't huge (200 tonnes?) but still skilfull driving to get it notched up so quickly,

      Still had another loco on the end which stopped soon after which helped that day.

      Andrew Jones It was! They run in the week normally on the 10.04 from Preston to Barrow. Never thought I'd get the chance to do this but it was mint. The 4 coaches plus the other 37 on the other end gave this some real welly! Thanks for watching and hope you get the chance to do this too. P

    • @andrewjones6413
      @andrewjones6413 6 лет назад

    I used to prefer the loco hauled sets before the DBSO's were used. Always guaranteed entertainment at Preston as the rear loco had been idling for nigh on 5 hours. I've seen some and filmed some cracking departures of my own

    Probably a novice question so please excuse my ignorance but why when setting off do they 'pulse' the throttle, see. Various videos with them doing this,

    • @pauljones401
      @pauljones401  4 года назад

      Ryan Foreman I think I get what you’re saying. I drove one for my 40th and actually you have no control over that pulse. The engine just does it naturally. They aren’t feathering the throttle. It still moves forward but the engine does work on that cycle.

    • @ryanforeman3650
      @ryanforeman3650 4 года назад

      @@pauljones401 thank you for your reply, yeah I wasn't sure if it was something like that or a way of building up the boost, either way I always love to hear them, they were operating on the Norwich to Lowestoft line when I was holidaying in September. Could always tell it was these beasts over the newer replacement

    • @paulleyland
      @paulleyland 4 года назад

      it to stop wheelslip. A 37 deals with wheelslip by cutting fuel until the wheelslip stops then it reapplies power but if it slips again it will go through the cycle again. If the driver takes no action it will just carry on doing it

    • @VehicularBrit
      @VehicularBrit 7 лет назад

      Ah nice, I thought it was attached to the coach as it was so stable - I've been trying to work out a reliable system to do so for my own videos :) Good to hear they're still running - I'll definitely keep it in mind!

    • @pauljones401
      @pauljones401  7 лет назад +1

      VehicularBrit RUclips capture has a lot to answer for! It's stabilisation is brill! Check the class 37 website and look at I think the data heading on the header and this tells you what has been running 37 wise the day before. Beautiful line though. I did Preston to Carlisle
