Class 37s are my favorite Locomotives of all time and they have the best sound ever made by any diesel by far. I've always wanted to see one named " Do You mind if i Smoke " 😊😃😊😃
In the 1970's the iron ore trains to Consett up here in County Durham were hauled by double headed 37's, I live less than a mile from a 1 in 35 stretch at Annfield Plain, you could hear them for miles labouring up the slope at full bore, what a sound...
I live in Pelton Fell and I regularly cycle up and down the old line including through Annfield Plain. And I know how much of a slog it is. I have seen some pictures of how the lines used to look and it is madness compared to today, 5 tracks wide in places.

Dunno which is best -- the thrash or the kids enjoying the thrash.

Times we wish we could go back to
Would have sounded tremendous! You get to see how steep the gradient is when you walk it
