Thank you very much Keith, I'm truly flattered

What a beauty.

Wonderful. (Loved the tea mug too)

Really fantastic, Martin. Thank you for sharing. It seems to be tough for people to get the compound curves and angles of these diesel locomotives right but you've done it perfectly.

If you can dream it you can build it! Fantastic build well done! Incredible skill

Superb, great namer too. Captured the looks of a Class 37 really well. Crying out for light, tasteful weathering.

Exquisite build good sir 👌

Absolutely brilliant work 👍

I’ve been in the cab of 37424, it’s just like this down to the DRS sticker on the nose door

Mr and Mrs O are greatly impressed and can't wait until the next project emerges from the Bell engine shed

Love it, excellent work. Also love the Vulcan.

As someone who produces model trains for a living, I have to say the nose shape on the loco is better than I've seen on most of the RTR OO scale versions! The only thing that looks odd is the bogie frames but my word, what a lovely 5" gauge loco you've built Martin. The cab detail is on another level!!!

Hi Mike, thank you for your kind words! This the first 5" guage loco I have ever made, although most of it is scratch built, the frame and bogies came ready cut and welded which might explain the slight discrepancy?

Martin, that is truly stunning. Well done.

I love it.

Very nicely built.

Amazing ! 👍😃

Great build looks quite accurate to me and I have very many years working on class 37's , desk looked different to what I remember they didn't have that big speedo

Awesome! Well done!

Attention to detail is amazing.

I love it, I would love to have something like that just for a showpiece on a shelf, but to have a garden setup would be brilliant. I dread to think how much that 37 would cost.

Looks fantastic, can't wait to see it running for real

I’ve driven many class 37s and that just looks exactly like the real thing

Brill....craftsmanship at its best

man you deserve more subscribers

Stunning. Fantastic job.

Looks absolutely brilliant

Good looking engine, love the laser cut ply framing and cab build up. Excellent result I like that better than a grp shell.

Hi, it's interesting you say that because I was very disappointed in the detailing on the grp shell and that's why I decided to build it from scratch

@@BinfieldWoodwork when 4 mm rtr has details that P4 modellers would have left out 30 years ago, then there is no excuse in 5” gauge for flat , no relief, detail less models. With a bit of subtle brake dust , diesel spillage and sun and rain fading your s will look even better. 👍

Absolutely superb! 👏🏼👏🏼👍🏻👍🏻❤️

Superb!

Wow. I am sometimes disappointed by diesel locos on miniature railways that are poor renditions of the original, particularly when the body shape is all wrong. This loco, however, is a work of art!

Nice

excellent job it looks so awesome and runs nice

Well done!

Amazing piece of kit 👌

would you consider building any more, it's the very best i've seen. ??

if you arent too far from cambridge and want to come and run it with scale coaches ect let me know, lovely looking loco.

That is an absolute work of art! Fantastic looking loco! would you mind me asking how you made your buffers from round to oval please?

No problems, I made an oval template, then marked them with a scribe, cut and filed them to shape!

Fantastic build, certainly looks far better than the original body! Would you consider selling me a couple of those wicked front nose, so at least the front of mine would look like a 37

Hello, wonderful video, I was wondering if you still have the dimensions for the nose that you made as it is the most detailed nose for a 5” model that I’ve ever seen and I would quite like to replicate it in a different livery thanks, Billy

How did you make the interior cab detail and framework was it a kit etc

Fantastic build! Do you have any plans for this? Would love to replicate it.
