Just started on my archive of 37s, so lots more to come soon
The late Ray Towell, Operations Curator at the National Railway Museum, had a holiday home nearby and was a massive fan of these workings. He described the 37s' exhaust as being like "angels' wings" and the sound of them like "distant thunder".
spectacular, love it
Stunning. I wondered when someone was going to use the latest in AI upscaling on railway videos from this period, couldn't be happier that it is yourself with your fantastic source material.
Brilliant quality for 1990’s footage.

Just got some new tech to help me Trevor, hopefully first vid of many 37s in the SW & North Wales
Great video, and the upscaling is just stunning
Superb😊
37674 was my last 37 took me years to track it down
Great quality!
37-674 now up at the Strathspey Railway, Aviemore, Scotland.
7:28And they were allowed to walk along sidings with a weedkiller spray! Now you'd need a line possession to do that
Wow - your enhancement software gives me hope. I have tons of hi-8 footage from the 1990s shot with a Canon L1. It was the highest resolution at the time. I must delve deeper into your equipment to see if it can help me. Problem is - the L1 crapped out so have no way of playing my old tapes.

I bought a Sony digital 8 camcorder that will digitally transfer via firewire
The days when S&T technicians would be on hand to fix the crossing gates with a can of WD40. Now all trains would be stopped for hours while a Rapid Response Squad comes from Plymouth 😐
