    I haven't taken much interest in the railways for a long time but I must say how pleasant it is to see these quite old locomotives still earning their keep, and in such lovely condition too!- it makes such a difference to see them gleaming

    I never fail to be impressed by how quickly a 37 can lay down the acceleration. Even with a full load behind them.
  • Now you're talking. You're spoiling us - a real crowd pleaser! Who doesn't like watching / listening to growling tractors? The chap in the hi-viz jacket at (I think) Shrewsbury station had a ringside seat. They used to be everywhere when I was a boy growing up in South Wales. The HNRC-livered example looked good hauling the logs. I'm going to try to replicate the 37-20-20-37 consist on my layout this weekend. Awesome.
  • class 37’s are nearly as old as me, great to see them earning their keep still.
  • Love the 37s. That timber train shows just how powerful they are. We only usually see them pulling a few passenger cars.

    A good video as always of tractors clagging and as these locomotives are one of the best 1960s british built loco's ever built and they're one of the biggest surviving diesel classes of any BR loco's ever built to date as i think 109 still exist out of 307 that aint bad!!! 😊

    this is excellent ! the uk has so many interesting trains, love to see they all are still used 😁
  • @gbtrains
    I love the sound of a Class 50, but for sheer power and grunt you really can't beat a '37' at full thrash

    Great footage . Nicely shot. Hopefully the timber workings will last , shame they didn't in Scotland.
  • @alanvincent4862
    Any idea if you can get to know where these types of locos are going to be ahead of time? I live not far from Shrewsbury and would have headed down there to check them out if I'd have known.
